The R.A.F Leuchars airshow was a complete wash out (or should i say grey in) this year and hardly got any photos (except of those from inside of a cloud) don't know if its worth posting them.   Undecided Undecided basically nothing could fly until after 15:00 the cloud was so low, a lot of aircraft never came due to the weather and that meant no BBMF (Battle of Britain Memorial Flight) this year.

Ahhh the joys of living in the land of rain--when will they learn to have airshows in the summer?? When was summer in Scotland this year? I heard it was July 17th..  Whistle Whistle

You're wrong G-man Spring missed out Summer and went straight into Autumn this year  Undecided
      The only good thing that happened was that I bought a 1:72 scale model of a Vulcan made by Airfix and it is BIG, hard choice can make 1 out of 4 diffrent squadrons or could  convert the transfers for XM597 out at East Fortune. Its claim to fame was that it landed at Rio de Janeiro with a live Shirke AGM-54 on the rails after a malfunction during a raid on the falkland isles in 1982.

Ahhh well there is always next year...

Here is a pic of the G-kid I took back in 01. There is a story behind it---She had just flown out to spend the summer with me, had been up for many hours due to the time change but refused to go to bed, fell asleep on the couch. I e-mailed the pic to her mother, grandmother, friends etc.. NO-ONE is safe around my camera Whistle Whistle I feel an ass kicking coming from her next time I see her..

a plane that i have failed to identify (help me on this one) taxiing after a rough landing (very rough)



the same plane after shutdown, all of those people went out of this on,and there's still one in there



To my ignorance on plane types, it seems like a Piper PA-26 Warrior:

or could be a Piper six...this info is from Wikipedia:

PA-28-235
Piper continued to expand the line rapidly. In 1963, the company introduced the even more powerful Cherokee 235 (PA-28-235), which competed favorably with the Cessna 182 for load-carrying capability. The Cherokee 235 featured a Lycoming O-540 engine derated to 235 horsepower (175 kW) and a longer wing which would eventually be used for the upcoming Cherokee Six. It included tip tanks having 17 gallon capacity each, bringing the total fuel capacity of the Cherokee 235 to 84 gallons.[1] The aircraft had its fuselage stretched in 1973 giving much more leg room in the rear. The stabilator area was increased as well. In 1973 the name was changed from "235" to the Charger. In 1974 it was changed again to Pathfinder. Production of the Pathfinder continued until 1977. There was no 1978 model year. In 1979 the aircraft was given the Piper tapered wing and was again renamed to the Dakota.[citation needed]


PA-28-140 Cherokee 140
 PA-28-140, built 1966In 1964, the company filled in the bottom end of the line with the Cherokee 140 (PA-28-140), which was designed for training and initially shipped with only two seats.[1] One source of confusion is the fact that the PA-28-140 engine was slightly modified shortly after its introduction to produce 150 horsepower (112 kW), but kept the -140 name.


PA-32
Main article: Piper Cherokee Six
In 1965, Piper developed the Piper Cherokee Six, designated the PA-32 from the PA-28. It which featured a stretched fuselage and seating for one pilot and five passengers.


...Piper changed their names afterwards, adding to the confussion of Confussious ROFL ROFL ROFL

...In 1974, Piper changed the names again, renaming the Cruiser 2+2 (140) to simply Cruiser, the Challenger to Archer (PA-28-181), and the Charger (235) to Pathfinder.[9]


PA-28-151 Cherokee Warrior
Piper reintroduced the Cherokee 150 in 1974, renaming it the Cherokee Warrior (PA-28-151) and giving it the Archer's stretched body and a new, semi-tapered wing.  Wave
