Anyone up for a sortie?

Recommended Posts

Perhaps a trip into town for a quick beer?

Hey, Hauksbee, nice to see you! Is that picture real?

And what does it show/where and when was it taken?

Greetings Olham! Sorry, there's no info on the pic. I just Yahoo Searched for "Late WWII2 Airfields" and this was among them. Truth to be told, it looks more like late WWI, but...no telling.

Naw, the landing gears are later, thirties, I'd say. Trainer craft perhaps?

You're right. The upside-down one in the center is definitely a Tiger Moth. Check the cross-braced landing gear.

Yeah - but what happened to them? A giant storm, perhaps?

Hard to say. However; since it's so bloody slow around here, and nobody seems to want to harry to Boche (presently company excepted) What do you say about a new coat of paint on the BOC Mess?
