Thanks Nige, that's great.
Have you had enough now?
I did start some more fleet painting, later style B Cal 1-11s, 200s & 500s.
To be honest, if I'd known it was going to take this long, I'd not have bothered.

Too far in to stop now, but it's so hard to get right.
If I ever get it finished, think a couple of B Cal 500s and 200s will be heading over to Gatwick (via far far away probably).

I'll get your coat for you Dave, and hold the door open.
I just had a look and there are a lot of Comet 4s aren't there?
Maybe one day (or more like a week)

Yes, that sounds fair enough.
I'll add those Comets on the CBFS 'to do' list, just below DBs 737s.

No problem.
BCal fleet sounds nice. Soon as they're up, I'll move them. The one I'd look forward to would be the BIA fleet, being an ex-employee.
Still, you've got enough on your plate....maybe I should learn to repaint myself

We
do seem to have quite a lot of 4's don't we. I didn't realise quite how many until I looked for a paint to match a registration!

That 'ferry' I did back from Madrid is probably the first '4' I've flown (usually go for the 4B's) so I've not paid much attention to how the fleet has grown
Ah.. the 732's

After 59 consecutive flights, I think I was losing interest as my landing V/S kept creeping up. When I saw my last one was -186, I thought it a good time to stop

Fortunately, every 732 we own has a dedicated paint/reg (although I had to doctor a couple) and there will be NO further paint variations due to my rapid (and early) retirement

I can't be doing bare metal as Garry will check to see if I've cut the registrations/wording out of the Alpha

Indeed I will as it's dead easy to do
