Gnomey's Pictures

[Wildcat]

Great pics mate!

 

[Gnomey]

Thanks! I still have more to post...

 

[grumman-cats]

ok, I'm jealous now. I would really love to see them planes in person. Especially the tempest. do you have any of the MK V with that sabre engine.

 

[Gnomey]

The one posted is the best of the ones I took of it, none of the others really came out, sorry.

I do have the one below though, not one that I have taken but a good one none the less.

 

[Glider]

Also its a Hunter, Vampire and a Gnat as well as being a great shot

 

[Gnomey]

Changed (at least on my HD)

 

[Gnomey]

Been a while so here are some more from Hendon.

 

[cheddar cheese]

Mmmmm CR.42...

 

[pbfoot]

great pix at great museum when i was there my batteries in my flash packed it in but still managed ok on manual

 

[Gnomey]

Some of the pics are dark because I didn't have the flash on (to conserve battery) and I still ran out of batteries, so I was warming the battery after every photo to get the last ones...

 

[pbfoot]

I got stubborn and decided not to pay the price for batteries they wanted in their museum shop

 

[Gnomey]

I didn't pay for the either, just was thankful for the second battery I had with me at the time (left it where I was spending the night though)

 

[evangilder]

Nice. That is the worst condition for shooting too, in a darkened museum.

 

[Nonskimmer]

I like the pics, Gnomey. Good stuff.

 

[Wildcat]

Sweet pics mate, love the Beaufort.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

CC you'll proberly be interested to hear that the fusilage of the Fighter Collection's CR.42 has just made it back to England (the wings have been back for some months now) and after she has been assembled it's hoped she'll be back in the air in a few display seasons time..........

 

[cheddar cheese]

Sweet as! Isnt there a Gladiator being restored for flight as well? Those two in the air would be great.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

yup, two in fact. one (registered as G-GLAD, formerly N5903) is going pretty well, again with the Fighter Collection, like you say they'd make a great pair, and the other (registered G-CBHO, formerly N5719) is in very early stages with the Retro Track and Air, the CR.42 (registered G-CBLS) will be up before either of these Glads, and you are of course aware of the Shuttleworth Collection's immaculate airworthy Gladiator........

 

[Pisis]

Great pictures, Gnomey.
