I have no idea what the finished aircraft looks like as I can't see any picture, not even a little red x in a box  :banghead:

Try a different browser, that usually works for me.

Odd but it worked, now to try and find out why  :unsure:

I can now see the pictures after finding out that The Rat was using Facebook to host his pictures I removed an add on that I had for Firefox called Facebook Container. I restarted Firefox and voila pictures!

Kinda gutted I can't see this. Not sure if the links have gone or what's happened, but sadly none of The Rat's threads are showing pics for me :(

If you try and look at the source file it says 'URL source file expired', whatever that means. :(
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I get 'URL signature expired'.

At a guess, I'd say Facebook don't like the bandwidth it's costing them to act as free picture hosts, so they have some routine that changes picture URLs after a set time limit so that the links break. A quick search on various web help sites seems to confirm this.

I'll see to that in the morning. Thanks for letting me know.

Photos restored. I'll try Google in future, maybe they won't expire.

Model and backstory most impressive........well up to your usual standards.

Brilliant! Thank you for that. Have one of these bad boys along with a Bloch 200 and the big Potez myself so good to see them breaking cover elsewhere.

Afraid to say all your threads from around the same time are suffering the same issue over images, but I imagine that will be a lot of work.

Thanks! I'll get on fixing them.
