    Thumbs up Some nice pics from Classic Aircraft Photography!

    G'day All!
    This Company used to regularly post some pics on the Forum but we haven't seen any for quite a while so thought I would post these 3 rather nice ones for them.

    Thanks Barry these are a sight fore sore eyes - 2 AM and I am still up.

    Particularly like the Avro Anson Mk I photo as this reminds me of the Airfix 1/72 scale aircraft I have built upstairs. Strangely enough this was done during my previous visit to rehab before my recent stay there where I chose to collect diecasts in the same scale instead. I don't really build kits any more after ten years of doing this - well, only the odd 1/200 scale Vulcan here and there

    Love the pics, Barry!

    Don't care what anyone says... the P-40 looks like an angry airplane! Outperformed at altitude, the P-40 was killer at high speed and low altitude. Kudos to the DAF, RAAF, and AVG (and the Soviets, to be fair) for demonstrating its worth.

    REP!

    Love it. Do we have any aerodrome members in New Zealand? These are as good as I've seen from the Historic Aviation Film Unit. As I must make a trip there once in my life to Omaka to see the planes fly, might as well taker in a few games of WGF while there....

    Yes Bob there are quite a few Forumites in NZ including Linz who used to be very active a while back.

    Check out the NZ Wing section of report for duty.

    Ah, New Zealand . . . with my two boys living there, one married and having my grandson, Mrs Clipper and I are working a plan to visit there again, this time for a long trip to visit the kids and the south island sites - most certainly the air museums! There is a flight and cruise package that flies you near NZ and then sails you in a figure "8" around the islands, beginning and ending in Auckland - where the kids live. One of these days . . .

    Thanks for those additions Baz.
    Helps to drive away the cold from my workshop seeing them.
