I went to the vintage light aircraft fly-in at Abingdon today. What have we here? I hardly expected this. Shocked

The magnificent Jumpin' Jacques. Wink

Don't you just hate it when someone does that. Angry

Later on we were allowed to have a closer look.

C'est fantastique......! Grin

After I swing by Dave's house to steal his camera, I may head over to your place for a few months, Hagar...

And after reading about the problems with KnightStryker's neighbors, he may tag along.

Now, before you say no, KnightStryker has offered to go halves with me on a mega-expensive simulator cockpit. So think long and hard.

A full pit, a beautiful camera to take pictures of any random Mustangs that stop into town.....

If you want me to sing to keep you company though, deal's off.

Great edit, Bob.&&&&&&Google it. &&&&www.google.com

Superb stuff, that is one very fine Mustang. It's that time of year now when all the Warbirds start to come out of Winter maintanance. We had a flyover from the BBMF Dakota a couple of weeks ago but I've not yet seen the Rolls Royce Spitfire.
Great pics Hagar pal.

You sounded quite irate that the fellow in pic 3 got in your picture. So I took the liberty of "editing" him out for you! Grin

I've even made it look like the poor man was nibbled out of the photo by some sort of pest (possibly a mouse, or bookworm). I hope you like it! Grin

Hey, i've just had a thought, why don't you post it on some supernatural site. That looks quite ectoplasmic to me... Grin

I uttered several very rude expletives when that idiot got in the way. Some people have no soul at all. Roll Eyes

I suppose the bullets in the last shot are for thoes stress filled days. Grin

Wonderful aircraft. It's hard to believe that they were once weapons of war.

I only pretend to know what I'm talking about. Heck, that's what lawyers, car mechanics, and IT professionals do everyday. Wink
