See, even the difinition doesn't know the difference. Democrat and Democratic are two different words with differrent meanings. Democrat is a political party. Democratic is a political process. |

Let's get back on track here. Tell us more about your Spitfire, is it modeled after a particular one. If so who flew it, what squadron etc. ?

OK I'm imbarrassed. Seems I didn't do proper research. The Spitfire I'm modeling is Dutch not Czech. The difference is the Dutch insignia has the orange center and white at the bottom center. The Czech insignia is the same colors with no orange center and the blue is top center. They are rotated 120deg.
Anyhow to look at the two, they do look a lot a like. Proper info, Mk732 flew fighter sweeps over the D-Day beaches with No.485 Sqn. RNZAF from Selsey. Built in 1944 at Castle Bromwich. It was assigned to Plt Off H W B Patterson (who christened it Baby Bea V after his fiancee Beatrice) It was credited with a 1/4 share in the destruction of a Ju88 over the beach-head late in the afternoon on June 6 1944. This mission was flown by Flt Lt K J Macdonald. Hope that's enough info. I'm tired of typing. Kelly |

Sup guys, just wanted to post some YouTube videos I uploaded from the indoor fly-in last Friday. There's also a few videos taken from my T-28 the week before. All of the videos can be found on my YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/fixedwing71. I've embedded a few videos below.
Most of these videos are taken with my keychain camera (I was showing it to Larry on Friday night). It was $13 from an eBay seller and I added a 4 GB MicroSD memory card for $12, for a total investment of $25. The video - for the price of the camera - is amazing! It takes still photos and 720x480 .avi video. The videos at the Indoor fly-in were taken by sticking the camera to the canopy of Kyle's Blade CX3 with some Velcro. He just slowly cruised around the area and it turned out great! The other videos from last weekend were taken by simply sticking the camera to the wing of my T-28 with some Velcro. Enjoy! |
