Re: Halifax photos



I like to potter in the garden when I get time. It does not look too bad this year.
Ok I know its an ego trip but I had a statue of me done and I think it looks very good.

Re: Halifax photos



Hows about this very rare bird, a Swift.

A nightmare to develope back in the days when designers (and pilots ) were going into the unknown.
In the end it made a brilliant PR aircraft and served well in the cold war. (and it was fast).
 

God Bless America.

Re: Halifax photos

Did you see this very rare exhibit at Elvington. It was there in Feb 2005 but I haven't seen it since.

Re: Halifax photos

Jim,
Great pictures, thanks for close ups of the Halifax.

By the way, I think the statue of yourself is a little to modest. You really should have gone for something a little more grandiose.
 

Anything for a weird life.
