I really miss the days of hanging out at the old London Flying Club on the deck.

Very cool! I remember standing on the driveway to forest city National with my dad when the U-2 arrived. What a sight that was!

I was wondering the same thing, but I can't for the life of me remember what that "message" was.

Gman,

These are great photos, those were good days definitely. I will try and hunt around for some from 1984, I actually managed to get a few OK shots of two Voodoo's in formation, one in 'Lark' livery and the other standard gray.

Thank you for sharing these, they are great.

Cheers

I found out what the message said today in a story at the airshow Security meeting, and I gotta give props to to the crafty charactors that did the deed for actually going thru with it. now only if we can get some RAAF back at YXU... :lol:
