Er Guys.... if Papa's correct on this and I've no reason to doubt him, why did the Quigley Collective mistake an American twin engined, mass produced, twin tailed medium bomber from Roy Chadwick's four engined Masterpiece ?

John- Do you recall the small singe engine low winged plane we saw and I commented on?

I felt sure it was a Hurricane with the broad rounded wingtips (Spitfire more pointy wingtips!)

More like a Hurricane than a Spit but there was talk among the Guys back on the shooting line when we returned.
There are less flying Hurricanes than Spitfires so to see one flying is mega rare !

I thought it was a hurricane too. But the person I mentioned it to didn't think it sounded like a merlin. Can't think what else it could be though. I think that there are about 8 airworthy hurricanes around. As opposed to about 55 spitfires. And that number is rising

To be honest I thought the wings were a little too broad to be a Hurricane and the fuselage was very slim.

I didn't have my glasses handy when it came over. Wracking my brain the only alternative I can come up with is a P40. There are a few about, 1 based at elstree & 1 at Duxford that I can think of

Sounds like youre having a proper chill out there mate . I’m doing similar here Chris but with a roll-up and a glass of water. Being the generous person I am, I just gave a one of my .22 H&N FTT’s to a squirrel that visited my garden and I’m sitting here looking at another one on my fence. I’m gonna start looking around theForest of Dean and Dorset areas over the coming weeks for home but I will take my time.

Yesterday I cleared my desk and vacated my office for the ‘new people’ taking over my team on Monday so I’m now on gardening leave for the next 4 or 5 weeks until they sort out my pension and severance quotes. Apart from a couple of Appeals they want me to do next Friday, that’s it pretty much and I’ll be free of work
