Our Venom burst into life today for the first time this year after a protracted period of maintenance. As Kennet's is currently without insurance, ours will be the only airworthy Venom once it flys towards the end of next month.
Coal fired :green:

No, it's the other Jon on Classic Flight. He's the Chief Pilot.

What a wonderful photo, thanks for showing Tom.
Just hope there are none of these green enviromentalists lurking around when her engine is fired up!!!!

The middle pic in that shot Peter, what kind of bomber is that? Can't tell from here if it's a Washington or a Bear...
