Where?
Stephen,
The last time I was at FIG there was 2 feet of snow on the ground and everybody was frozen by the end of the day. The place you pictured looks like Florida or California - somewhere warm. Any day with a Carrier drive is a good day! Stewart

GAP 2006
Thanks , & I hear ya . I am in the same boat . Lose days and it is minus dollars , yes ?
If the lads think I am hauling them around , they better think twice .... and get ready to tie their ammo boots to a stick , waving them around , chasing me & hollaring , " Messiah , Messiah , Bless Us O Lord ... !" ( scene from 'Life of Brian' , from those crazy Monty Python guys ... hahahahahaha .... )

Steve...is that a smile or a grimace? I guess the average size of a Homo Sapiens male has greatly increased in 60 years which is strange as our morphology had been stagnant for millenia! I imagine a seviceman's size strongly influenced his choice of careers. Ever tried to fit in a Ball Turret? Or even make the traverse from the Bombardier's position to the Pilot's seat in a B17? I once sat in the seat of an ex-R.A.A.F. Hawker Sea Fury and even though I'm only slightly above average size (6' 2" 235lbs.) I had to roll my shoulders forward to fit. Would have been darned uncomfortable to have to fly an entire mission that way! CHIMO!

German 222 was fiberglass , I know the one your talking about
9th SS has it. The box is indeed John's repop. The other carrier seen around here is Barry D's also with 56th recce now his is named "Vera Lynn" also a 1942 Mk1
