Here are a few photos from Armistice Day 2008.
It was great to fly with these three magnificent aeroplanes.

Have 10 other WW1 website updates to do soon including Air 2 Air flights with the Albatros D.Va, Sopwith Triplane, BE2, Fokker D.VII, Bristol Fighter, and Sopwith Camel etc from flights last year and this year. Will also include the aicraft at the bottom of this post from outside and inside the aircraft.

In the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to lose.

You are right Ian and great to be in the FE club that is slowly growing and thats the good thing as, we can now experience what it was like to fly in these amazing aircraft that are so rare but making a come back, well done TVAL, and thank you.
Am writing a story on my flight and it should be published early next year.

Just check out all of those struts and wires, its an incredible aircraft and the first aircraft I have flown in that runs on castor oil, just magic.



This is due out any day now as well.
