Caption Comp???
I think in a Waldorf and Statler stylie
"That was the worst flight we ever had, well it wasn't that bad, there were parts i liked, It was brilliant, more, more bravo, bravo." :D :D

Seriously looking good Mike, nice to see Fly Legends back where they should be, making great aircraft. Will be seeing them at this years Cosford?

Cheers

Andy I like your style , I laughed.
Unfortunately I wont be at Cosford, I have other commitments and whilst I would do anying to support the association as much as i can, the thought of joining a very long queue for a brief flight , possibly in a ripping 90 degree crosswind is too much.
I am sure all will have a great time.

Thanks for your comments your Caption will go in the 'tray', I will give it untill the end of July and see what else comes in.

Regs Mike.

Mike....I know I have been saying it for a while and you have been chasing me, but it will be ready this year, honest, so here is some evidence! Great model and a piece of cake to build......I can't wait to be chasing you and Bones around the sky! Will post some more pics of it in due course.

Here is a bit of modern Supermarine Art. Mike they look great as sculptures in the garden, but i have to admit not as exciting, so will revert to original purpose! Pics taken after spraying, but before the Ice Age!

Congrats to Jon Horne for at last getting No 3 in the air yesterday. In what was not ideal conditions with that nasty wind and rain showers.
I am sure there will be some piccys on here soon.

Ditto Ken, the old CO Barras, finally, after a massive build and development time in the Glamorgan valleys, surpassed himself with almost a perfect flight.
Ken did you notice that huge cloud of dust that came off the airframe as it became airborne.
I didnt see much after that as I was blinded by the dazzle each time it passed by.

The designer.

Thanks guys for your congrats! Thanks also to those of you who were there giving encouragement. Sorry I didnt make it to Barkston, but with a 230mile drive each way and the weather as it was, discretion was the better part of valour. I put the weekend to good use making it less shiny as and adding the more of the detail. Will put up some pics shortly.
Chris..... I heard you pulled off a greaser at Barkston! (I don't mean the guy of the bike).........see you all soon.
The CO
