Agreed Hairyplane, you are a nutter of the highest order (and I have photos to prove it). However, I'm very glad that some of your madness is directed towards the custodianship of some lovely planes.

Cheers, Rob

the Chilean Aerobatic team is called "Los Halcones" initially flying Pitts S2 but nowadays equipped with Extra 300's.

The Jordanian Aerobatic team is calles "Royal Falcons", also flying Extra 300's

Also, looking through my 'Boys Book of Sopwith's' what sort of creature is a Snark?

The Sopwith variety had three wings and a Dragonfly radial.

What about your 'Boys Book of Miles'? :wink: Lots of Hawks in there!

You'd better hope that someone else doesn't take a hammer to their piggy bank whilst you've got your fingers crossed.

Mike J is going to prove his great knowledge of the World and tell us what Hawk is in Polish shortly I would imagine.

Mike, perhaps you'd like to enlighten us while you're still at work? :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:
