Full scale mock up with a catepillar tractor powering it. Capable of firing blanks. This is part of the Peter Jackson Collection.

The weather was fantastic, hence the bad sunburn on the areas I missed with the sunscreen. :roll:

Here's some current RNZAF stuff...................

Good to see you got your approval, I agree with Dave when the photo competition starts you have to enter your shot 1052s wee whopsy. I still think it was the shot of the weekend.

Good to have you aboard.

I love the way the exhaust stains are developing on Currawong.

The strong sun was worth the sunburn because it gives such rich images with vibrant colour which really shows with that Yak-52 pic. 8)

NZ1052 Ouch! Definitely takes the cake for an action shot. Made my eyes water!

I like the shot of the two diving P-40's. Very nice. Nice setting with the rolling hills in the background...
