ANZAC is a Reserved word by law, its not permitted for any other use other than RSL Parade etc related activities.

Thanks Mark,I was not aware of that but it makes sense.Oscar,have you considered looking at Vietnam if you desire a 'Raider'My company was approached over 10 years ago to do some work on one to return it to service but a spar cap had exfoliation.At that stage it was still there and the interested party wanted the work done there and then fly it to OZ.By the way Mark,any more of the Lincoln parts arrived yet?Cheers,Pete

Pete,

So far only the two 40' containers, one with the wing outer panels and engine narcelles, the other with the wing centre-section, we are expecting the other containers to be a while off, they are held at another site in the transit route under the "transhipping" arrangements that are freighting them here, and as part of the freight deal they are not being delivered at a priority.

as per the Lincoln thread

http://warbirdinformationexchange.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=9871&highlight=lincoln

regards

Mark Pilkington
