A thread for the aircraft anoraks

[Artemis]

Look what came to play at Kemble on Friday......

 

[Artemis]

They did 6 flights each during the day, two of our Hunters did 7 flights each and then they got together for a spot of formation flying......

[RHINO]

They look

like P51's..........were they running ALLISON V12's????? (anorak alert)

I watched an air race on TV staged in the NEVADA desert, those guys are fookin MAD :bow: . They get old piston engine war birds and trim the wings down to make them more 'flickable' then race them between pylons, which looked like huge telegraph poles, at speeds in excess of 500mph c7u8

You need to change the file names on the pictures.

With XP when you put your mouse pointer over the picture it gives the filename, and the name of the aeroplane is in the filename :bang:

 

[Stevebrooke]

It's a Mirage 2000

Dead easy

Just put mu mouse over the thumbnail.

 

[Stevebrooke]

It's the only way Ned will get it right. I work with him and he's as thick as p1gsh1t. :} :}

 

[Artemis]

According to Hunter, the Spitfire is possibly a Mark V, but he can't be certain. According to Artemis IAN YOU'RE A WASSOCK, Derek's cottoned on but not saying.........








If you right click on the photo and go to save as, it gives you the title of the photo you uploaded. Found this out when Hunter asked me to enlarge the photo so that he could take a closer look at the guages.

And yes, Ian, the original photo was two Mustangs.
