Just been at work taking these photos for someone, so I thought I'd show you a simple view my place of "work" (loosest possible term!) Grin

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Nod a bad job you have there. That thing looks a tad more complicated than a Tiger Moth. Tongue

Lol! The photo doesn't show all the switch banks down either side either! Amazingly enough the most difficult instrument to get to work correctly is the darn clock on the left hand side. Note the cunningly placed trim switch on top of the control column. The first (RAF) Tucano lost was because of that switch (crew inadvertantly selected full nose down trim whilst holding the control column with both hands during an inverted spin). Made for and interesting recovery, and unaware of the accidental trimming, the aircraft was abandoned in the Martin Baker fashion...

Mirrors to adjust the handlebar moustache too... Wink

It's a nice little aeroplane. Just over 1050hp so keeping the slip ball in the middle is a mare. I'll try and get some airborne shots if I can get a back seat trip (one where don't have to do any work!)
