    They're also forewarned now - the defences will be expecting you :p

    I've always wondered how a surface to air missile would look in WCRC Maroon.

    I guess it depends on which end you're looking at & which way it's travelling, relative to you! :D

    Just got back, note it's a two man machine and since the engine and prop is at the back we do not have a rear gunner... Nice sunny day for a flight and navigation easy, follow M6. No missiles observed and other defences seemed inoperative.
    Green loco confirmed in steam, but due to extreme cold not only had camera battery died, but once gloves were off, fingers refused to operate as well. Ah well at least we now know to wait for test run timings.

    Come on Ralph. We need proof! Do you think we'd send you on these daring missions and not expect photo/video evidence. You'll be telling us that you've "copped" it next, and be underlining it in your little book.

    Now there's a question: how much of a steam loco do you have to see before you can claim to have copped it?

    Aye - it's taken them a while to convert, but they got there in the end.

    Now my veracity is being questioned because I did not get any pictures, with the wind chill, it was near -15 up there, very little works at that temperature....
