Hi Folks,
Of course the big news for this month is that thanks to some expert assistance from our resident guru Nelson (AKA Blackcat) both the message board and image galleries are back online and working as normal. A big thank you to Nelson for get us out of a hole once again! In the meantime, work has been proceeding with updates to pages including: A15 Chinook Gordy has provided an update on A15-103. A34 Spartan Gordy has also contributed some extra information on the Spartans. A22 Fairey Battle I've returned to this task and updated the RAF Histories for the following airframes: N2063, N2064, N2066, N2089, N2090, N2091, N2092, N2017, N2124, N2163, N2170, N2176, N2179, N2182, N2223, N2225, N2228, N2229, N2233, N2236, N2240, N2244, N2247, N2250, N2251, N2255, N2256, N5053, N5054. P2263, P2264, P2276, P2300, P2305, P2317, P2322, P2354, P2363, P2364, P2365, P5234, P5239, P5242, P5243, P5247, P5249, P5273, P5275, P5281, P5289, P6481, P6483, P6484, P6489, P6493, P6499, P6503, P6509, P6531, P6536, P6602, P6622, P6631, P6642, P6664, P6677, P6720. L5046, L5049. My next step is to complete the RAF histories for the remaining L serialled Battles before moving back to completing the RAAF Histories for the L, N, P & R serialled Battles. As ever, If you can contribute any photos that we are missing of RAAF Battles, then we'd love to hear from you! A4 Avro Anson Joe Barr has sent us a great set of updates on the following Anson Airframes adding a fair bit of information on post war survivors and remnants: A4-4, A4-18, A4-23, A4-26, A4-37, K8713, N1330, N4918, N4955, N4965, R3378, R3456, R3560, R3581, R9888, W1529, W1537, W1538, W1599, W1663, W1941, W1953, W2157, W2267, W2377, W2434, W2495, W2501, W2524, W2589, AW484, AW666, AW7969, AW965, AX123, AX147, AX262, AX267, AX280, AX350, DG728, DG753, DG824, DJ173, DJ288, DJ507, DJ508, EF954, EG426, EG535, LT708, LV130, LV131, LV203, LV204, LV264, LV296, MG142, MG161, MG172, MG178, MG188, MG190, MG191, MG197, MG215, MG222, MG308, MG346, MG388, MG390, MG391, MG392, MG453, MG521, MG522, MG256, MG686, MG735, MG757, MG775, MG778, MG795, MG813, MG867, MG873, MG897, MG898, MG972, MG983, MG988, MH121, MH120. Great job Joe, I've just finished working through adding these updates to the Anson Pages today! Thanks also to Geoff Goodall for allowing access to his research. A25 Airspeed Oxford & A6 Avro Cadet New team member Paul McGuiness has being doing a phenomenal job of undertaking a complete overhaul of our long neglected (by me) Airspeed Oxford pages, and I can now report that Paul is very nearly at the point of updating the histories of EVERY RAAF Oxford! Hats off to you Paul! As if that wasn't enough, he has also nearly completed an update of our Avro Trainer (AKA Cadet) page and is working on several others too! We will have these pages ready to publish soon, so stand by for some great contributions coming in from Paul soon. I can see that Mike Mirkovic and few others have wasted no time at all in getting some great new photographic contributions coming in now that the gallery has been fixed by Nelson. Keep it coming! Also thanks to everyone who has been contributing to our Facebook page. So even though we've had our share of technical difficulties, our work has continued apace. Thanks everyone and standby for more to come! Cheers Brendan Attached Image |
