My first thought was "Angry Birds"!

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

North Herefordshire, this morning, in order of appearance:-  2 Chinooks, following the A49 south;  a Tucano, heading for Wales; a pair of??? Herculeses??Hurculi???, going north at low altitude;  4 very loud Typhoons heading East and finally a BN Islander / Defender in plain grey.  The last one was VERY low, but I can't tell you anything more about it........when it flew past, I was up a ladder pruning a climbing rose.  I was more concerned about A) not falling off the ladder   B) not having an unfortunate incident with the pruning shears and C) avoiding the thorns on the rose prunings!

You'd have had to shoot us if you had told us any more about it anyway.  :lol:

I suspect it's one of the grey Islanders that lurk around the skies pretending they're not there! One was parked on the ramp at Odiham at a Family's Day a few years back with a large sign in the windscreen saying 'Do not take photographs of this aircraft!'

Naturally I did  ;)  but I can't find it at the moment.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Oldest trick in the book. Park it next to something you really don't want photographed and then put the sign there. Everyone takes pics of the every day one then  ;D

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

My thoughts are "Cardinals".

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Except it wasn't parked next to anything, it was all on it's own outside a hangar. Apparently one wheel brake had jammed on and they couldn't move it back inside before the seething hordes arrived.

It was back again this afternoon, and appeared to be moving North to South along Offa's Dyke.   Either the Welsh are getting restive or they thought I was pruning the climbing roses in a dangerously subversive manner.

Ah ! White roses by any chance ? Given today's events then they could consider you a possible Plantagenet rebel  :rolleyes:
