Sunday selection

More TV snaps for your amusement.
C17 with blowback.... and white tornado.
Missing front from B17. How did that feel to fly?
Canberra - a mirage, one of the effects you can get when snapping off the TV card. Same plane not a formation display. Did see a Canberra team once. It was at RAF Wyton - called the Green Marrows! Ho Ho!

I had the Dinky toy version of Bonds DB5 Roy but I fired the little china man out of the roof so many times the spring went weak and all he would do in the end was pop his head out of the sun roof like a demented oriental tank commander.

One of my aspirations as a kid was to have one of these 007 cars. My friend Derek got one and he suddenly became the most popular kid in school.

But you were being really smart if you kept it in the box. Then you could live off the proceeds by selling it on EBay! Had a quick look and funnily enough there is one for sale for under a tenner (so far) just like yours! No passenger! Apparently Corgi have just re-released a gold DB5 too.

I had an Airfix Bond DB5 when I was small, I got it in a set with an MGB and Austin Healey 3000. Needless to say, they sucked
