That's why I like my MkXVIII Mossie, not only is the gun big but it can be fired many many times and is very reliable!

HEY, He's the one with the broken big cannon in his airplane (because his other cannon is much smaller) that shoots blanks!

......What the hell did I just say?

I do a good job of concealing it though, eh? 8)

ohoh i can see it!!

I cant

the lancaster kicks ass · Jun 2, 2005

it just sticks out below the nose...........

cheddar cheese · Jun 2, 2005

I thought that but it looks a little small...

the lancaster kicks ass · Jun 2, 2005

well remember that's a big plane and the barrel won't be much more than 11cms wide........

FlyboyJ, that PBY is it a 5A or 6A?
If you RAF types want to come to the dace, bring a Suderland please. As most of the islands are not able to have an airbase, and Sea Panes do rule!

After seeing a speacial on the RAF and BoB why not a war tor near broken 19 year old kid who flies two or three times a day! I think I would have cracked, or being a bit trigger happy, have been out of rounds very fast

But after October 1940, having servived, I am sent to Canada to train the new pilots

FLYBOYJ · Jun 3, 2005

I think that might be a 5A, and Toronto is nice in the summer

the lancaster kicks ass · Jun 4, 2005

for training, i'd much rather be in a pre-war situation, flying at dusk over kent in a tiger moth........

It sure is.
Except for the smog and humidity, but damn there's lotsa skin!

Like this one?

My grandfather loved it. He did some of his basic flight training in them, like so many Commonwealth pilots. He always said it was a great little plane, easy to handle. Essential I guess for pilot trainees. Interestingly, he also did some of his training in an old Nieuport.

Last year we had that one, the Tiger Moth and a Gypsy Moth. Great little biplanes. Looked effortless to fly.

FLYBOYJ · Jun 5, 2005

I got a lead to fly one here soon! I hope it pans out.

That'd be cool, FBJ! They have biplane tours here now too. They have all kinds of packages too. Check this place out:
