Nice shots of the Penguins Ray.

Not too sure about the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation building in the background?

Unless the Lynx is on an attack run of course

Thanks John.
I was going to make a similar comment about the bank building. Might be a good way to nick the cash machine, better than borrowing a forklift from a building site though.

You can get more with a gun and a smile than you can with just a smile.

Gun control! Who needs a smile? Man with gun is in control.

Nice shots there Ray. Just goes to show that some Penguins can fly after all

A good friend of mine used to be a Penguin and he was daft enough to be navigator type one. He actually let someone else take his life in their hands and first he had to find where they took off from and then the driver had to try to land/controlled crash on a small moving airfield. He spent time on Buccaneers and a nav doesn't even have a window to look out of! At least we in the R.A.F. didn't try to move our airfields when the fly boys took off

My Discus 2. Lovely to fly and very responsive.

That looks sleek, John, but surely a man like you wouldn’t fly without an engine. That registration comes up on PlaneFinder as Cessna 172P Skyhawk.

A long shot this one and bags of cropping.
