Insidious Wallop
The Hawker Hurricane is a British fighter design from the 1930s. Some 14,000 Hurricane and Sea Hurricane fighters and fighter-bombers were built by the end of 1944。 August 1940 brought what has become the Hurricane's shining moment in history: The Battle of Britain. RAF Hurricanes accounted for more enemy aircraft kills than all other defenses combined, including all aircraft and ground defenses. Later in the war, the Hurricane served admirably in North Africa, Burma, Malta, and nearly every other theater in which the RAF participated. The Hurricane underwent many modifications during its life, resulting in many major variants, including the Mk IA, with interchangeable wings housing eight 7.7mm (0.303in) guns;the Mk IIC, with a Merlin ** engine; the Mk IID, a tankbuster with two 40mm anti-tank guns plus two 7.7mm guns. During the war, Hurricanes were sold to Egypt, Finland, India, the Irish, Persia, Turkey and the USSR Air Corps.More in http://www.rangorango.com/124-series-c-1_5.html

*England 1942 The war was endless she thought it would be over in six weeks when it was declared. now three years later she found herself in this airfield crowded with young fighter pilots flying Spitfires and the bomber crews flying the stalwart Lancaster bombers. She was twenty eight now getting to that age of being called a spinster of the parish. The young airmen were interested in her but really only for one thing. She worked in the photography department of the RAF and developed pictures taken by the recon airmen of France and Germany and Holland . Recently an American had joined her in the darkroom. He was a big man and had a crooked smile and big hands he lay on the belly of the bomber plane taking pictures he laughed and said he never fired a gun in his life. And that he had no beef with Germans he just fired his camera at them. He liked to develop his own pictures and they worked alongside each other in the darkroom all though the war. She got used to his crooked smile and big hands. He got used to her being there. The war finally ended and he went back to the States. Where he opened a small photography store and built a darkroom with his own hands. When it was finished he returned to England on a ***** steamer to save money. He knocked on the ladies door that had worked with him in the darkroom. She answered and he asked her for her hand in marraige. She accepted his proposal and they sailed back to new York. When she explored the photography shop she found the darkroom. On it was pinned a note in his nice neat handwriting. It said I fell in love with you in the dark my love. But I want you spend the rest of of your life following the light with me. She was to be my grandma and he was my grandfather. My father was born a year later he had a crooked smile and big hands with a love of photography. His specaility light and shadow. I was born much later and did not share the family love of photography and was let off by God with only a crooked smile no big hands. Instead I used to get into trouble at school for writing poems in the margins of my exercise books. Grandma passed away a little while ago i was given the task of clearing her personal items from the house. In her memory box I found the note in Grandfathers hand that he pinned on the door of his darkroom so long ago. It moved me to write this story. So Go follow the light Grandma Look for a big man with a crooked smile and big hands Hes waiting for you.*

cuando raf salinger se enamoró o quiso de verdad salió de sí como de un calabozo brilló con propia luz no tuvo tacha ni defecto ni mengua como caballos como vacas al fin de la jornada raf salinger vertía sus aguas en plena soledad fulguró afuera como sol no pálido de cárcel no en guerra "cuidado que me lastimás" decía raf salinger a los hombres de manos ásperas que como niños están cubiertos de miel pero le quitan la victoria el vencedor "oh ángel que te inclinas en la primera mitad" decía raf salinger furioso cavando el viento que le envolvía la trasluz o el revés de los días malos que le comían la verdad "si el coraje consiste en ser prudente" decía raf salinger "si los vestidos significan desnudez y miseria dicha el llanto cadáver curación, te arde amor el odio" decía con gran perdones finalmente todas las ventanitas se cerraron cuando raf salinger murió un calor le creció entre amor y afuera juntándole los dos al solito "ah tiempos no distancias que hay entre mí entre mi calor y mi sol" decía raf salinger casi disuelto ya bajo la sombra que le apagaba el hubo que vivir sobre su gente subió el frecuente olvido peor raf salinger viajaba abrigado por un cuerpo desnudo encontrado o joven

Death of a RAF pilot WW1
I spent hours walking, trying to thumb a lift, no one stopped. Near Slough, I caught the last bus going in my direction- at least it gave my feet a break- but not for long. In the early hours, near Marlborough I saw a car approaching, it's headlights cutting through the darkness along the otherwise unlit road. It was two o 'clock in the morning and  my weary spirits rose as the car came to a halt beside me. It was a Police car! The two policemen questioned me, checked my twelve fifty, (identity card) rummaged through my belongings and then drove off, leaving me to continue alone in total darkness. At six thirty in the morning a motor cycle roared up and stopped beside me. He wore an airman's greatcoat! "Where are you heading for mate." "Innsworth I replied hopefully. "Me too, jump on if you want!" I did want, desperately! I arrived on camp twenty minutes late at eight twenty,  They were nearly finished kitting out, I just made it in time. "Where were you when I called the C's.?" The sergeant asked. " I could have been in the loo" I didn't sound too convincing but he let it go. "Take off your blue uniform and put this on, then bring your blues back here." I was looking at tropical kit. "There must be some mistake. I am going to the second TAF in Germany."  (The Second Tactical Air force.) The sergeant grinned. "You and six hundred others, you can get sorted out when you get there." I did what I was told and changed my clothes, and handed in my blues. There was quite a buzz in the accommodation block, Harry came to meet me. "What a monumental cockup! Harry said grinning. It must be ****** hot in Germany, that's all I can say! I spent the rest of the day resting my blistered feet, we were flying out tomorrow. I expected to fly from RAF Lyneham,  in a Dehavilland Comet but I should have known better, life was never that simple! To be continued.

I slept like a log, inspite of the pains from my blistered feet. Harry woke me at six thirty. "Time for breakfast, better jump to it or i'll tickle your feet."  The thought of that was enough to set me in motion. After breakfast we assembled for role call beside the waiting coaches. Then we boarded, and left the camp heading for the airfield. Every one was expecting to fly from RAF Lyneham, we had heard that we would be flying in the new Dehavilland Comet, the first passenger jet. It was not to to be. The comet had crashed into the sea, there were no survivors! Instead of that, we were driven to a remote airfield in Wiltshire, I believe it was called Cliff Pypard,  there we boarded an ageing hastings transport and set off into the wide blue yonder heading on a more southerly bearing than one would expect for a flight to Germany. I tried to keep an eye on our progress by following coastlines, it was difficult, clouds obscured much of the coast line. I had the definite feeling that we were travelling in a South Easterly direction, and I asked one of the aircrew about it. "Don't worry, I expect we'll take a turn to the north soon." A little later, I suddenly realized that we were flying over the Med- Germany via the Med, never in this world!! We ate chicken wings lettuce and bread for lunch, still flying at a steady one hundred and eighty miles an hour at mid day, below us dessert! We were all confused. Where on earth were we going? Our first stop was at a place called Idris, it was an airstrip in the Libyan desert. There was nothing there only tents, and a place to refuel. I was a squalid stinking dump, and that was all. We left early the following morning after a laughable breakfast that no one ate. Our ext stop was a similar one but even more so, It was a place alled Habanya, I think, I went to use one of the two toilet's and discovered that the horrible brown stains in the toilets were actually enormous heaving masses of huge cockroaches, I went out into the desert insted. when I got back to our tent I was told off. "this place is crawling with snakes, don't stray about!" we didn't need telling twice! The tents were just as bad, infested with huge spiders, no one slept. We were glad to leave it.

There are films, and then there are films that are directed by Luca Guadagnino, set in Italy, starring Tilda Swinton, and featuring wardrobe by Raf Simons during his time at Dior. Released earlier this year, A Bigger Splashmarked Swinton, Guadagnino, and Simons' second film collaboration (the first was I Am Love) — and it made everyone want to go on holiday looking fabulous. Basically: Swinton plays Marianne Lane, a world-famous rock star holidaying in the sleepy Italian town of Pantelleria. (Right? We know.) Though her character is recovering from throat surgery, which renders her speechless for the entire two hours of film, leave it to Swinton to remain as captivating as ever. Oh, and she's joined by a rather sweaty Matthias Schoenaerts, a wickedly pompous Ralph Fiennes, and a brooding, scantily-clad Dakota Johnson. If you're unfamiliar with Guadagnino's style, it's filled with long, lingering shots of nature, close-ups of food, silences (and lots of them), sumptuous sceneries, grandiose architecture, and breathtaking styling. Simons worked with Guadagnino's friend, costume designer Giulia Piersanti, on the wardrobe. She told i-D about the inspiration for Marianne's clothes: We specifically wanted Marianne Lane, Tilda's character, to be a bit more elegant than her surroundings. It was important for her to have a wardrobe that was a bit over-the-top. In the end it was also important in the acting and portrayal of the character for her to be nonchalant about it and very effortless. She's a star, and she doesn't hide it. Even when she goes out into the piazza, she's a bit overly dressed, like an old movie star would be. She needed to keep that glamour in her wardrobe. Despite the striking simplicity of Marianne's style (billowing jumpsuits, shirt-dresses, and thong sandals), it's the details that make this film one of the finest examples we've seen of dressing well in the heat. For your viewing pleasure (but still — watch the film), we've selected the most memorable fashion moments. Warning: You will want to do away with all your hot pants, crop your hair, and buy some silver shades, pronto.See more at:http://www.marieaustralia.com/cocktail-dresses | www.marieaustralia.com/formal-dresses-brisbane

The roar of the **** automatic guns That threw their exploding flak shells Mixed with the shout of our engines And bone dry rattle of our machine guns Gave the French battle scene life As we strafed and bombed our enemy To give our troops more time Our biplanes were made to fight the last war Not a Blitzkreig but a target was a target We went after the ******** all the way Our six Hawker Hector biplanes still had teeth Four yellow painted 125 pound bombs And two small machine guns aimed by both crew City of Manchester Squadron grabbing their chance Aircrew of the Royal Air Force serving King and Country In the darkest hour as the **** war machine came Seemingly unstoppable and utterly invinsible Except when the RAF biplanes attacked...

Headstrong Tornado I feel like I failed myself for not joining the Royal Air Force I wanted to join for years ever since I was a kid But my teenage moods got in the way Like they did with most other things And still do but I see them for what they are, moods Which stopped me from being elite And serving my country and deterring the enemy Be it Soviet Russia or anyone else Looking back I realise things were as bad as they were My moods were a hurricane of what? Teenage angst about not having a girl? Pressure cooker emotions caused by my dominant mum? Peer pressure rivalry to be normal and one of them? Being bullied and having to fight for my existence? Simply living and being me in my head and world A world where I want to fly and dream of the sky Like I have every day since I was born The fact that it could of been different Nick the Tornado F3 pilot intercepting Soviet Bear bombers But my eyesight went bad and i never got full grades So it was my unfulfilled dream up in the clouds Yet it wasn't all doom and gloom I did re-arm IX SquadronTornado planes with practise bombs This was in 1986 at RAF Honington with Sgt Edwards That made up for my career failure Even if it was just for a day In my memory that day never ends...

She Defeated Death She should have left the city when the chance was there. Before the Nazis came, closing the noose. She has so many regrets, except on her actions. Now she's at the wall,... the reasons crystal clear to her. Some things are priceless, unique. Like you my dear, now against the wall. Your dark brown locks hang by your shoulders, your pretty eyes scan the heavens, still defiant. Your lovely beautiful face stern. With death bearing down upon you, victory is yours. Crack go the rifles. Your ****** witnessed by the shot down RAF airman. You, the heroine, when the others were silent. Imagine your legacy and what you stand for fifty years from now. That matters. Though I don't know your name, I remember you and what you died for. (dedicated to an unnamed woman that a shot down RAF airman saw executed by the Nazis) out of our new book...
