leafer Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Well, that was no fun. :D ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P
joey45 Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Shame Duxford missed it for nearly nakid sexy ladies in Anime cosplay.... The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Ells228 Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 It was a great weekend and many thanks to those that came into the hanger to say hi. Kato was there, how did I miss meeting him?? I'm sorry to say that those who only attended on Saturday didn't get to see the sneak peak air battle on Sunday morning. Once again many thanks to Nick and Jim for being absolutely gracious hosts and to watch Nick Grey flying DCS P-51 to such precision was an amazing honour. I'm just downloading the pics and videos I had time to take and will ulpload soon. Thanks to all, Chris.
_Heater_ Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I'm looking forward for this. Many thanks Chris ;) Simulatori: DCS A-10C II Warthog - DCS F/A-18C Hornet - DCS F-16C - VRS F/A-18E - HOTAS: TM Warthog - Cougar \ HP Reverb G2 \ WinWing Panels Tally: I see the degenerate commie who wants to ruin our day.

Joe Kurr Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Great pics Ells! Too bad I brought the wrong camera to the hangar when I vistited (500mm is a bit much for this kind of shots...) Dutch Flanker Display Team | LLTM 2010 Tiger Spirit Award

Teapot Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I wonder if the Hawker Sea Fury was the one that was originally based here in Toowoomba, owned by the late Guido Zuccoli (of Aerotec, still run by Mrs. Zuccoli)? His had an AN scheme as well. I really miss those days (a few years ago now) when Guido used to do fly overs over the town on special occassions (like during the Oakey Airshow etc) ... seemed to be roof top height, but obviously a bit higher :). The sound of the Sea Fury is really REALLY visceral, boot tingling rock your socks off experience. Guido died in a landing accident flying a T6, rest his soul. "A true 'sandbox flight sim' requires hi-fidelity flyable non-combat utility/support aircraft." Wishlist Terrains - Bigger maps Wishlist Modules - A variety of utility aircraft to better reflect the support role. E.g. Flying the Hornet ... big yawn ... flying a Caribou on a beer run to Singapore? Count me in. Extracting a Recon Patrol from a hastily prepared landing strip at a random 6 figure grid reference? Now yer talking!
Agg Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Riding my bike this weekend and have plans on going to the local airstrip to check out the action. There is one P-51 stationed there (Old Crow). That is if there is no CA release on friday :D (HJ)I thought you were based in Oslo :unsure:
LawnDart Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Great pics Ells, Rock and everyone else! Just catching up on some threads, didn't realize this took place while I was gone.

Ells228 Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 Yeah was good fun LD, and even the weather held out for the show on both days :) Kato turned up apparantly but I missed him.
LawnDart Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Kato turned up apparantly but I missed him. You missed out on meeting a living legend. :lol::doh: Glad TFC/FL turned out great!
