All, the build up to the Classic Fighters airshow here at Omaka is well underway, scheduled for Easter. Spitfire XIV NH799 was pulled out of the Dangerous Skies exhibition and fitted with its overhauled carb, then full power runs- that woke up the neighbours!

Yak-3UPW Steadfast arrived on Friday following shipment from Oz, so that will be assembled over the coming week.

The prop boys have made a number of improvements to the remote controlled V-1 Flying Bomb and test flew it last week, have a look here:

Fantastic. I'm super excited - accommodation and travel were booked in July.
