QUOTE (Kiwia1spad @ Sep 4 2014,11:27 PM) 486NZ also operated Typhoon's on Ground Strike and before that Hurricane's on Night Intruder raids. If you can find it, the book on 486NZ called the wild winds. It is an amazing read, it in the appendixes they have listed every airframe flown by 486, and all the pilots who flew with the squadron during its life I was lucky to meet a 485 pilot at the Tauanga Airshow 7 years back, that was a Spitfire Squadron as we all know , one thing, he so was damn pleased so many have the knowledge and followed the history.

God Dang .. that is striking /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif /> .. I have a very good friend who was brought up here, his parents place was directly on the back fence off the 'Watties' plant ... Anton follows the forum here from Japan so he would very happy to see this. /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif />

Very nice!! I will enjoy every minute of your adventures, here or overseas /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> Really nice shots. I love that plane, one of my favourites in my hanger. Lots of good angles and views there. Cheers for sharing.

I simply flew past at a 100 MPH in the ole days ... that case, I'll also bring a set off Sheffield knifes .. to cut the fresh lamb steaks after a whoops /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif />

"Special Meat balls" , that dose sound de-lish /drool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :drool: border= 0 alt= drool.gif />

QUOTE (Splitpin @ Sep 1 2014,9:24 PM) I wonder what will happen when we get to ZK-ZZZ ? back to AAA ? They simply ZIG-ZAG around that , ... funny you mention registration, car rego's BYU-234 and 236 parked end to end - two totally different cars .. whats the odds in the street length of mine ?

Truly you are possibly so correct, One thing I love with model as old as , it was an icon on carrier decks for years, as you would know with the wings , it was lest aggressive on carrier landings .. almost floated in .. ultimate utility aircraft for a carrier . for full screen

QUOTE (Roelio @ Sep 1 2014,11:17 AM) Fly full throttle for more than 5 minutes and your engine comes to a grinding halt, the first time I was like: what the hell is happening here!? Cool screens /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif /> Thanks Roelio, many of the carrier aircrafts engine were tweaked above its operation performance, sorta like over-clocking your PC - basically used as a saving net coming on board a carrier or launching.

QUOTE (Ian Warren @ Sep 1 2014,12:28 AM) Ya better get ya bib ... incoming to spill your coffee again! Strange brought this years back but have not played around with it , one off those Iris deals. *Grabs his beer tight*

Looking Great /cool.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= B-) border= 0 alt= cool.gif /> , never seen this version off the DC-8 , I did see Rupert Murdoch's private one one the ramp at Sydney eight years back during in the back blocks getting another look-see .

Odd ..... at least 5 of those towers have been demoed in the past 12 months . The shot just misses the one ive been on for the last couple of years.
