ChrisB 11 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 It was a rhetorical question posing as an entry title but yes, you're right My "Flightseeing" paint of the best Tiger Moth despite it being FS9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hello Folks, Remember the topic of this months subjects is "old Stringbags". I see a lot of recent pictures that are not in this class at all and wont be counted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berk 1 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hello Shaun, I was wondering is my shot not counted too because fw-190's are in the class of "Basically pictures of old flying machines from days gone past." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alehead 126 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Ju-52, Spitfire, Fw-190 Me-109... none of these aircraft is considered to be a stringbag... Stringbag is a very specific term, being the nickname of the Fairey Swordfish... A stringbag is generally a biplane with lots of wires everywhere... so any biplane shots would be valid. Of course, this is my interpretation only, Shaun and the rest of the team at Aerosoft are the ones who make the final say... Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berk 1 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Ah since i didn't know the specific meaning of stringbag... This sentence "Basically pictures of old flying machines from days gone past." fooled me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hello Folks, Andrew is right, I will let you edit your posts to a picture more suitable for this time round. Oh come to think of it the real "Stringbag" Fairey Swordfish, not seen one of those posted yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alealb 3 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 The first to cross the South Atlantic Ocean by air in 1922, from Lisbon, in Portugal, to Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil. The Portuguese aviation pioneer Sacadura Cabral together with Gago Coutinho (1869-1959), was the first to cross the South Atlantic Ocean by air in 1922.
