Default Disease or sickness?

"Nurse, Check his temperature...... He must be running a fever!"

Are there any British built MkI's in the U.K?

What is the bracket at the far right of the 2nd to last picture for?

Lynn, I have yet to see a British built Carrier here in the Uk.

Richard, Check out the thread on 'carrier spotted heading for US', I will be putting in the vision metalwork and glass this coming week.

The new carrier takes priority until stripped and primed, will check out the carriers numbers, this carrier would of had its data plate on the drivers wing.

kev.
