ddavid 149 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'm biased (And Old! - Ed) but for me, there's only one AC in this category - and here's an old B/W of the BI prototype: If I get time, I'll pop a couple more up for your delectation!

simi_av8r 0 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Some beautiful entries already....very hard to top some of them, but I'll step up to the mark as always, and without further ado, here's the first of my three Auster J/5R 'Alpine' G-APAA. Formerly owned by the Automobile Association in England, and used for traffic spotting duties! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Edward Longe 3 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Nice shots Simmi, should be a close one this month with lots of decent entrys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doing a low fly pass in a Ford Tri-Motor, just saying Hi to my mate who is waiting to taxi out. Pic3. Coming into land after a 200+mph dash with my DH-88 Comet, just passing the black sheds at Farnborough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 love that 1st shot mike, very nice DH89a 'Dragon Rapide' very nice indeed! as for me, well, here's No.2.... Rick Pipers superb DH Chipmunk wearing a private livery registration G-AORW which still flies and is kept in airworthy condition today by its owner in Scotland. P.S. - don't you just love REX, just look at those clouds and colours!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SEATAC 400 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Some fantastic shots this month. I have nothing to compare, but here are a couple of shots from a different point of view of my Dehavilland Mosquito. One from the cockpit and one from the bomb bay in the nose.

mike H 456 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Thanks simi. Very nice pic of a Chipmunk, good luck for the comp. An RAF Chipmunk was the very first a/c I flew in at 14yrs.old,I was in the ATC at the time. We did alot of aerobatics and I had ago at flying her. This was out of White Waltham. It was Just Fab. :dance: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dodgy-alan 1,576 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Love the shots of Rapide G-AKIF, I used to fly on that aircraft regularly when she was based at Booker. I worked for Personal Plane services owned by Tony Bianchi and that aircraft was in our care. We used it for joy riding when things were quiet. She then wore an overall Dark blue colour scheme on the fuselage with the markings in white. I,ll have to dig out some photos of her and taken from inside when we were over the chilterns. A really lovely old aircraft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 DA, that's a great story, and one i'd love to see the photos of. I've only once flown in a DH89a, and if memory serves it was Air Atlantique's G-ATGM in the all blue colours... anyways, i came back with my 3rd of this competition, but i've still got 2 days off next week to play with a few things, so who knows, i might be back with a replacement yet!! Here she is, its the venerable P-51D Mustang "Cripes A' Mighty" taking it low and slow over Colorado, just a few clicks from Granby-Grand County Airport (KGNB) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mike H 456 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Thats a nice story Alan.It's great when a screenshot brings back memories.I have yet to fly in one. looking forward to seeing your photos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve C 0 Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Sightseeing at dusk. Gonna make it. Say cheese. Thanks for looking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SirDixie 0 Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 Just the a couple, from a recent run across the Andes. Climbing out from Santiago en route to Buenos Aires. Over the snowy peaks, it was a struggle to gain enough height to clear the mountains safely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SEATAC 400 Posted February 27, 2010 Report Share Posted February 27, 2010 My third entry for the month. Returning to home base in Australia after a bomb run in the Solomon Islands. This Mosquito sure can move. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 And welcome to the Hangar, SirDixie - great shot! I see your a White Roses man after my own heart. :smile: Cheers - Dai. :blush: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mutley 4,211 Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Thanks to everyone who entered this month As ever, a very high standard of shots I pondered over a couple of shots for quite a while but this one came out tops! Very colourful and just the thing for a dreary day outside. So without further ado, this months winner is RB16015 with this picture of the Junkers JU52 Check your PM's Ray Quote Link to post Share on other sites
