)

No probs Gaz. There's a copy shop near me, so I might be able to get both of these scanned onto a disc, then transfer them for e-mailing, rather than scan them in two halves. I'm trying to find a magazine which has some excellent colour interior shots, I think inside the Collings Foundation Lib.
Two questions; have you got 'Liberator at War' and do you have a VHS player, or the facility to copy a VHS to CD?
Reason - some other internal pics I have are in Lib at War, so if you've got it, I'll omit those, and I have an excellent video on USAAF ops, a bit repetitive, as it was filmed in late '43 by ther USAAF, but there's some excellent footage of the inside of various Libs (plus B17's of course), and the whole shebang from bombing-up, weather flights, briefing, to the mission itself. If it's of interest, I can send it over, and you can copy it.
Let me know either way.
Cheers,
Terry.

Terry
I have "B-24 Liberator at War" from Aviation Video International if that's the one, and you've just given me a good idea. I have a VHS/DVD Combo that can record from VHS to DVD so I can convert my old VHS

I'll take anything you got buddy I'm always on the lookout for anything on the Liberator.
Shall I PM you my address? You do know I'm in New Zealand now (before you go promising to send anything).
Thanks
Gaz

No probs mate - NZ, NY or even down the road from me, it's only the cost of a small package! The 'Liberator at War' I refered to is the book, by Roger Freeman, who I'm sure you know of (he coined the phrase/title 'The Mighty Eighth'), one of the Ian Allan (publishers) 'At War' series of books.
It's probably best if I sort a few bits and bobs out, e-mail them, hopefully over the weekend, then exchange details and requirements etc then. That way, it saves popping up on, and searching, the forum.
Leave it with me, and I'll get some stuff off to you, plus a list or note of other possible bits that might be of interest.
