| 1238358 | 2011-11-07 20:18:00 | There's a pretty extensive fly-over planned for the Pacific, and a quite comprehensive tour of the Tasman ;) | R2x1 (4628) | ||
| 1238359 | 2011-11-07 20:32:00 | But it doesn't help me with taking a photo or two - no matter how big my telephoto lens :) :) | Zippity (58) | ||
| 1238360 | 2011-11-07 21:17:00 | Anyone else remember the flyover of a (De Havilland) Gloster Meteor in 1948/9? | Richard (739) | ||
| 1238361 | 2011-11-07 21:49:00 | You mean there are people THAT old reading this forum? :D :D I remember seeing flyovers of the Vulcan bomber and the Sunderland Flying Boat :) |

| 1238362 | 2011-11-07 22:39:00 | Yes Zip, several of us. And I don't why you comment on the Sunderland. The Short Sunderland first flew in 1937. Short was the manufacturer, not the length of the plane as opposed to a long Sunderland. | Richard (739) | ||
| 1238363 | 2011-11-07 22:43:00 | I remember the Valiant and the Victors flying over and also the Victors putting on an impressive display at Ohakea many years ago. | tut (12033) | ||
| 1238364 | 2011-11-07 22:47:00 | I am aware of the history of the Short Sunderland :) There was a great programme on SkyTV about it just a couple of weeks ago. Why did I comment? see post #4 I was born in '48, so I missed the Meteor flyover (that I can remember) :) |

| 1238366 | 2011-11-07 23:58:00 | I saw the Skyhawks flyover just before they were mothballed | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1238367 | 2011-11-08 02:09:00 | I saw the Skyhawks flyover just before they were mothballed Gary, another stupid thing Helen did, our son was on the avionics upgrade just before the mothballing. Have a photo around somewhere, he and his parents in the hangar @ Ohakea, he had just received another gong, and now had more than his commanding officer, he stated that day. They then had to do the chopper repairs, bit of a downgrade, Helen on the other hand went to UNesco I think. Lurking. |
