Back To India + One or Two Typhoons.
This is my first post of 2015 so I am quite rusty, especially as I am on a steep learning with my new camera.

Re: Old gold, from Alan Noble
The Hurricane PZ865 shown at North Weald is now with the BBMF at Coningsby.
I took a photo of it at the PDA day yesterday flying as a pair with Spitfire AB910.

Re: Some memories of the first of the Waddo dynasty
Many congrats on your Anniversary Paddy. Enjoy your cruise.
Mrs P has beaten me - I tried to get my "other half" to do the same four years ago (same reason) but had no luck.
Hope you both have a great time.

Re: Spec Comp December 2014 - Photo of the Year 2014
If not the "photo of the year" certainly the "planes of the year" and also the greatest crowd pullers. For me it's memories of 70 years ago!
Happy New Year everyone.

Re: Anyone got the new Canon 7D mk2
I have been considering the new Canon 7D2 but then news of a MkII Canon 100mm - 400mm tele lens has left me wondering which way to jump first.
