Hmmm, that's a new one on me, never seen that before.

Great example of a beautiful aircraft. ....And you are correct , Bader did lose his legs when he "ran out of air" whilst flying one!

Steady as you go Mr Worf!

High Lightning, 74K!

Airbus A220 over the French Alps

Oh ye of little faith! LOL

Well done Richard, a worthy winner.

Good looking bird. Nicely caught. ((just a thought ,I'd be inclined to crop out the screen texts etc before loading them to bring the pictures to life.)

Dusting models is my responsibility, my wife doesn't touch them.

2016 Batman Vs Superman, Dawn of Justice. This time Ben Affleck dons the cape whilst Henry Cavill is cast as Superman. 2016 Batmobile, 1/25 scale metal kit. This time the Batmobile has lost all trace of the bat like fins that adorned the earlier Batmobiles, (with the exception of the "Tumbler" version seen the Dark Knight trilogy. This vehicle looks more like dune buggy on steroids. there is a new Batwing that goes with this vehicle but the kit is very rare and very expensive when they do come up for sale. (cheapest i've seen is £119! so no way I'm paying that for a kit.! LOL)

This time the 1989 film starring Michael Keaton as Batman. 1989 Batmobile. In the first film of this series the car was in fact gunmetal grey but by the second outing had become all black. with the 1966 and 2016 Batmobiles 1989 Batwing, 1/25 scale. 1989 Batboat 1/25 scale Thanks for viewing

This time we tackle Batman Forever which starred Val Kilmer as batman and Chris O'donnell as Robin 1995 Batmobile. 1/25 scale. This was an awkward build due to the skeletal design, However persistence paid off and I'm rather pleased with the result. Together with the 1966 and 1989 Batmobiles 1995 Batboat, , Like the car this one also features the skeletal style hull. (as does the Batwing from the same series of which I am yet to build)

Model making lately has been largely sticking to a theme. In this case the Batman TV and Film series. To that end I have been collecting and building as many of the models out there that I can find. 1966 Batmobile. 1/25 scale, The one some of us of a certain age will remember fondly which starred Adam West and Burt Ward as Batman and Robin respectively. From the same era the 1966 Glastron Batboat. Thanks for viewing.

Nice looking aircraft.

IPA......Mines a pint!

Yep, exactly! LOL. And the Russians offering to sell us the AN-72 when the RAF announced it's need for a new load lugger! Oddly enough we turned that offer down! LOL

I remember being at Farnborough whey brought the A380 along the flightline at around 90 knots! ( or so they said) The thing looked like it was just hanging there! Bloody impressive I can tell you!

Fresh from her Farnborough debut, the Airbus A220 on her way to southern France. If she looks familiar that is because the A220 was originally marketed as the Bombardier C Series but since Airbus took over marketing and production the aircraft has been rebranded. Low slow flyby as she departs Farnborough

Well seen, good captures.
