hurricanemk1c 195 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Hi all! Here's some TSR-2 screenies from a flight from Boscome Down to Southampton for 'temporary' show at the Musuem I set up when a Concorde squeezed in! Engines started, the white bird slowly starts to move - first time in nearly 45 years! Airbrake Test Turning Huh - I though this was a MILITARY airfield! Oh, it's the airfield's CO's! Suprised he hasn't go one of these! 2D VC Holding! Beautiful - shame it was cancelled! Turning onto the active, 05 this morning Dry Power! Full Power!!! Lift off! The amazing gear retraction! And up Climbing powerfully away Underside from the Lightning chase plane - the only Great British Plane to remotely catch it! Envrioment being 'respected'! Giving it a burst of afterburner! Climbing still! Diving down - giving them a show! Airport in sight How low can you go? Hard round Gear down and locked View from the front 'pit Spotter Cam suprised!!!! Touchdown!! Braking Parachute dropped Turned around The hot exhaust 3..2..1..Turn! Taxing to the musuem hangar Stupid GA - don't they know this is a TSR-2 and the Mutley's Hangar Musuem! Round we go - one advantage of high wing Stopped - engines winding down Cold and dark The A/c, XR219, will be on display until the summer when she'll fly to Dublin for a full overhaul - and production will restart with improved engines, avionics and other improvements! Thanks for viewing! Link to post Share on other sites

The red barron 41 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Nice story line Kieran. When Dai says turn off the lights he means all but the BCN light. Link to post Share on other sites
