Captain Canada

Hi everybody ! I know I'm not around as much as I used to be, but I still think of this place and all you guys  :thumbsup: So here's a few pics from the Hamilton International Airshow this month. Had a wee chat with the Rat whilst there and met his wee son Charles as well. No photos of that to protect the guilty ;-)

Didn't take a lot of photos, but here is a showing of what was there.

Static Hornet. Lots of gun soot on his nose...must have been shooting off at the mouth

Where did that Mossie come from?  :o

I thought the recently flown NZ one was the only flying one in the world?
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! :)

The Mosquito was built in NZ and then moved to the USA or Canada for her owner. Great photos!
