"Gary, I know its disheartening but it seems we have video upload on webs and we have the forums. The forums can be used for everything else - just have a topic for museums, airshows etc. I've started one for Legends to get it rolling."

Okey, I'm sorry, but after spending hours trying to make stickandrudder.webs.com work, I've had it with it. I'm sorry but after trying to get us to Facebook also, and the 'format' changing in seconds, and I cannot get members to 'post on stickandrudder.webs to the full, I've simply given up. Its not fair on you, there has been enough moving about, 'pro-boards weeby, it goes on. So I'm sorry, I think we had best call it a day, because I don't want folks 'stressing-out' over it.

I am so sorry to have to inform you, but with regret, stickandrudder.ning is to close. I hate having to do this, but it cannot be helped. Please do not 'post' anymore videos or pictures, as of today 22-6-2011. Please start downloading any of your material asp, before they 'pull' the plug in july, which is not that long awy, so, best start making a move now.

 

Why ? well, this how it is, as you know last year was the first year that I had to pay for this site, and to be honest,…

Cancelled 'Reds' shows

Worth 'noting' that the Red Arrows, have cancelled a number of shows to allow for training, a replacemment 'Red 6' which was involved in a mishap in Cyprus weeks ago. In order to keep the nine-ship' formation, this has to happen.

P-38 Lightning off, Welch beach 2010

Asked Gywnedd council, some 'straight' questions about this aircraft's current status. Gone very quite, on this subjuct, on all forums of late. I will not be donating any of my 'cash' to the outfit concerned, but will 'donate' to the expenses of Gwynedd council on their part of the aircraft's recovery, should it happen. Will 'post' their reply, should they choose to do so. I wondered is there an 'unlimited' time-limit to the 'owner' of the licence of the aircraft's recovery, by the…

Invasion of 'Tw*ts' !!

It would appear that this site is being invaded by 'twats', who are not all they seem, with regard to aviation fans. They join the site under the most 'simple' name they can think off, in the form of spam. Ning have been informed of this problem, in that they are 'peddling' drugs on this site, so may I ask for your patience whilst I get rid of them via the 'get-rid' button !! I work 8 to 5ish most days, so I only find out about it, when I get in from work. So do be aware of them, do not…

Rick Hughes

Hi all,

 

Had e-mail from Colleen Bailey, Ricks okey, turns out it was Kennith Hughes she was talking about and not Rick. However we wish Kennith, a 'speedy' recovery for whatever reason he's had an operation two-days running.

Safety measures.

Hi,

Just to say, that any new members joining our site, must submit their location also. I trust them to be truthful with the info, and after hearing 'wispers in the wind' of the wrong kind of member, wanting to join us. This site 'prides' itself, as I have said many times, of the fact that we have no moderator on this site, because it is hoped that we all get on, due to the fact we all love aircraft and our 'hobby' and thats as far as it goes. If I think a 'new' member is suspect,…

The crash-site is in woodland near the A67 motorway between Viernheim and Lorsche with is to the south of Frankfurt, Germany. The crash happened at 17.20 GMT.

 

Our sincere condolences to the families of these victims at this time. Rest in peace.

Extra help at Bottisham

Not much to report, this week other than I'm sad to hear of the death of Col. Lee Archer on weds of this week. Was lucky to have seen a brief 'glimpse' of him at Duxford some years ago. Chris Reynolds of the 78th FG Group on Facebook, tells me the P-47G 'Jug' still has no wheels fitted yet. However, Chris has offered to help Jason Webb, stickandrudder  member, down at Bottisham with the new museum dedicated to the 361st FG. Hope this happens because the march opening will soon be here,…
