DT arrives in style

Postby Mackrick » Thu May 07, 2009 8:19 pm

Well to get you all in the mood for the up coming display season here are some previously unseen photos from 558 and its arrival at Brize on 22 Aug 08. These are courtesy of a work colleague.

Spot the hard working Brize technician :D

How about ........

'My Red Comb and Me'

'A week in the life of the Red Comb'

'Why I don't like windy days - a Red Comb's story'

It would give a totally different perspective from the usual very dreary stuff in his life like ......
Monday flew Lancaster ....... Tuesday flew Vulcan ........boring .......boring..... yawn :p

;) :D :D
