Here's one from No.5 sqn RAAF, looks like a few bullet holes in the rudder. Hey wait a minute...is that..? Why yes, I think it is, Bougainville in the Slot.



What about a Hurricane wing, would that be easier to get the guns right with? They'd be a good approximation and has the right sort of flaps and all that. An F2A pit methinks.

Does the F4F supercharger sound the same as Leigh's vid? The PW-R1830 Twin Wasp was being made locally for the Beaufort and so this was used. Also I like the non-perforated exhaust shown below better, don't you?





Whew, just browsing a local aircraft restoration site, looking at a nice Mirage III they're doing and well, I remember seeing those in service when at E.Sale AFB, I was there the day the very first Hornet arrived with its two F-111 escorts. In the early hours of the morning (still well dark and before wake up time), you gently came to the land of the living to the sound of afterburning Mirages taking off for their bomb runs (the barracks was right beside the runway...good one fellers :roll: but hell I loved it).
