• 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.

Thanks, G.

Another brew for Green.:icon29: Well done Sir.


(Anyone know what the larger plane is in the far background? Looks like a Stout of some sort to me).
 
Thank you Green, I expect though that this one has been through the system also, but here's hoping...

Hello Keith!
This is the original version (with tandem engines) of the Chicago-Midwest X101 (but I think she was posted long time ago)
Cheers

BG: Yes thats the one & yes I think we are getting to the recycling stage after all these years. Still its great fun for us that have either a bad memory or (as in my case) less experience in recognition.
She must have been quite a pig to handle when opening or closing the throttles.....
A liquid offering for you :very_drunk:

Agreed Keith on the handling!

It does not bother me when planes reappear. My memory starts to fade anyways and sometimes, new photos surface of previously obscure aircraft.

Thanks Keith and thanks Moses for the nice additional pic!
Unfortunately I cannot upload an image right now because the Tinypic site is closed for maintenance ( a pity because I had a very interesting offer)....
If someone would like to step in....
Cheers

Images, I just use the attachments management system here (you can usually see it below this box when replying) without having to go through an intermediary.
