Couple of pics I took of the Neptune at the RAF museum at Cosford, near Birmingham, earlier this year. Nice looking plane, - I think this one was in the Dutch navy.

Marty, you stole my P-3! Only four days ago I was buzzing Japan in that very aircraft!

NEPTUNE - Not bad for an aircraft over 65 years old with a bite , punch , speed and if WWII had continued , the sealanes and ports would have been killed by any attempted to continue .

Thanks gents.....Naki, Im looking at an Argus , theres an RCAF guy who's done one, he sent me the files but i lost them, so I'll have to ask if i can have it again....it was never released , just something he did for himself.

@ Connor.....sorry about that

i love those JSDF colours...old and new.
@Scupper...Great pics, thanks for posting.

@Ian....you must remember these (Neptunes) at harewood with the Connies going down to the ice.....Im not that old

Love that first 'out of the mist' shot Marty. With the low lighting from the right it looks most impressive imo.

Sea Bird , The P8 .. its history , The Boeing 737 100/200/300 or should we go back to the Boeing 337 and even further back pre that the then come from the B29 Super, its fuselage dates back even pre Nimrod , it has changed a little but the general structural design is the same , this the 737 will surpass any build for the next many years .
