| I look forward to seeing the final item Pogo.
I would also recommend the Yorkshire Air museum to anyone. They have an interesting selection of aircraft that you can wander around and photograph to your hearts content but the place I found most interesting was the room dedicated to Barnes Wallace.
I didn't realise just what other things he was a significant part of the development of such as airships etc. An amazing man. |

| Er ... Richard .You have me confused.Paint what silver? If you mean the lightning its aready painted silver .The buccaneer still has its silver leading edges to do but that is going on as a silver painted decal. The lightning is having all its decals put on because its ready for them. |
