That Navy herc is sweet.  Not very often you see pics of one of those.

Yes, I made a mistake with how large I uploaded the pix at Chumbucket. I've added some others in the mean time. ;)

Wow.....what year was that taken ? It's easy to look at it now and think how cool it would be to see a Soviet patrol bird that close. On the other hand, when the Cold War was on ? Bloody terrifying !

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! :)

Damn Eddie, just how old are you?  You must have been the envy of everyone in the '40s to have your own colour film!
