• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

At least they were using power tools to polish it, not like me when I had to hand polish a RAF Hunter that was taking part in a display the following weekend. That was way back in the early 70's and I was on a week long camp with the Air Training Corps at RAF Chivenor. Our squadron was tasked with the job of getting her all spick and span and about 20 teenage 'erks' spent the day crawling all over, under and around her. She did look sharp when she was done though.
