Chris Bott - Moderator Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Somehow, my internet connection is pretty poor this weekend. Here's a few more snaps though. Look out for footage on BBC Midlands Today over the next few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiltshire Flyer Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I swear in that group photo is someone who flys or used to fly the online sim il2, I used to play it online and think I have seen his face in pics on the skies forums? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cymaz Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 A few from me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ashby - Moderator Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Some from me. Saturday's mass builders meet. The Greenacres lads, not forgetting Chris who looked after Tx control. Sunday's Dawn Flyer builders. The DF mass fly was one of my highlights. Forumites! Loads of em ...and in a more orderly fashion. It was great to put faces to names although, rushing around so much, I'm sorry that I didn't get a chance to speak to everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ashby - Moderator Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Sunday's mass builders flying. Liam Clayton doing his thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ashby - Moderator Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Another highlight was seeing Chris fly his Comet late on the Saturday evening. As you may know, this model was the subject of a complete nose re-build after a crash and the time and effort spent on the job, and the result is really impressive. It must be flown with a lot of care or bad things happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggles' Elder Brother - Moderator Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Posted by David Ashby - RCME on 23/06/2014 09:23:24: ...and in a more orderly fashion. It was great to put faces to names although, rushing around so much, I'm sorry that I didn't get a chance to speak to everyone. Let's try to put some names to faces for those that couldn't make it. I can't by any means do everyone in this photo - sorry! - but I can do many. Perhaps others could fill in the gaps. Here goes - starting at the back left: the chap in the red shirt is Chris Barlow, next to him is yours truely, just behind me with the hat is WoolstonFlyer, the one in the yellow tee shirt is Lyndsay Tood and next to him is Paul Rice. Behind and between them I think is Cymaz but I can't see it clearly. Next to Paul, the character in the black tee shirt is Dylan and next to him is Alan Bowker. Then a few I'm not sure. Front left on one knee in the pale blue tee shirt is MartynK and next to him with the camera is Kevin Fairgreave. The "likely lad" in the check shirt next to Kevin is Weasel and next to him in green is "reg shaw" aka Ian Redshaw. Next to Ian wearing the white hat is David Davis. My eyesight isn't what it was and I can't zoom this while typing - but I think the chap with the black top and red sleeves and white hat on the right is Colin Leighfield and the person on the far right, squatting down, in the pale blue polo shirt is Danny Fenton plus daughter. Right at the front, looking like he's accidentally found a very uncomfortable stone to sit on, is Chris Bott. Many apologies to the ones not named - but as I say I can't see every face clearly and I'm still "processing" a few names! So reminders would help me to! So if you can put a name to face I haven't - please do! BEB Edited By Chris Bott - Moderator on 23/06/2014 13:01:47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
