Yeah you'd probably be in for a bumpy ride :) Even in good conditions those buggers were jumping up and down all the time with even the smallest winds.Samulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768684644521312467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642871939173026384.post-1921930268598577762014-07-21T12:44:46.025+03:002014-07-21T12:44:46.025+03:00Thanks!

The Fokker for example has a frame rebuilt in the 90s with the historical drawings and materials used. Only the engine is really from the war time.Samulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768684644521312467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642871939173026384.post-63919239758359817462014-07-21T12:42:46.086+03:002014-07-21T12:42:46.086+03:00Yeah the WWI really were a treat.

Especially the Radial Engine on the Fokker was amazing to hear (at least to a mechanical engineer like me). And the roar of the Spitfire when it was doing low altitude passesSamulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768684644521312467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3642871939173026384.post-15119135977119821522014-07-21T04:07:55.248+03:002014-07-21T04:07:55.248+03:00Fantastic post, some great photo's :-) Those W...Fantastic post, some great photo's :-) Those WW1 planes look very flimsy up close, it would take a lot of nerve to fly one!

There are some nice looking models on display and some of those bases are really neat.<br /><br />I do love classic car shows. We've one here every year and I go and dream and dream and dream....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01681799401614263953noreply@blogger.com
