Re: Happy Days!
I suffered the same fate with a recent, and probably all my previous postings (haven't checked yet).
I've switched to Flickr and hope to redo my previous posts as and when.
Hope you get something sorted as I really enjoyed this thread.

Re: Happy Days!
Nice memories Rodders,
The Tornado is 65 Sqn/229 OCU in the good old days of shadow Squadrons for conversion units.

Re: Happy Days!
The Swiss AF were regular users of the ACM range based at Waddington in the 90`s.So here are some photos from that time:

Re: Happy Days!
Hi Rodders
You had me totally flabbergasted there
When you said you had had a ransom note from 'PB', I thought you meant me
A lot of peeps on here just call me 'PB' rather than 'Paddyboy'
I then sussed that you meant 'Photobucket'
I had many probs with them, so always call them 'Photofu@kit'
Thanks for yet more gorgeous little Northrop pics

Finningley always had great mixed batch fly-bys, as I recall
'Raspberry Ripple' Bucc is the star for me

Re: Happy Days!
In 1991 a buddy of mine was stationed at RAF Linton-on-Ouse,and he was put in charge of the station museum.He asked to make a model of a Lancaster X ,as he did not have one in the collection.I duly built the 48th Lanc and took it to Linton.Before I went on the base I was able take these photos,I was unable to take any pics while on the base,but I did have go in the Tucano simulator.
