Probably true about that A-series Sabre; it would be very rare. Excellent series!

Good job you didn't - he was right. The Duxford Sabre is the only early A model still flying anywhere in the world.

Nice shots Steve, Is there a problem with the engines on the B-17 or do they always smoke like that?

Just a bit of 'drama' for the show Wink

If "Smoke on!" is good enough for the Red Arrows then it's good enough for Sally B Grin

The smoke is for effect.....but last time I saw her something was wrong with one of the engines.....took them 20 mins to get #1 started Cheesy
