Re: The DH2 and it's biggest drawback !
My monkey butler does a fine job of passing up a bottle of fizz and a tray of canapés from under the seat when we reach the smoother sections of the flight...
I must go up to the skies again, to the peace of silent flight, To the gull’s way, and the hawk’s way, and the free wings’ delight;
And all I ask is a friendly joke with a laughing fellow rover, And a large beer, and a deep sleep, when the long flight’s over.

If I can pull a loop the loop in the Handley Paige surely you can check six in the DH2 Pariah!
More vodka Comrade!
Re: The DH2 and it's biggest drawback !
Yeah,you've completely missed the point here friend.....one it wasn't Pariah making the point re the DH2 blindspot,it was me,lol,but more importantly,I'm not complaining here,it's just an observation,a bit of banter,fun,aka having a laugh.HotLunch wrote:If I can pull a loop the loop in the Handley Paige surely you can check six in the DH2 Pariah!
Kudos to you for being able to loop the loop in a Handley Page Halifax BTW,we're all impressed here.
Happy days eh ?

I think the DH5 wins the 'most useless British scout aircraft' award.
Fight on and fly on to the last drop of blood and the last drop of fuel - to the last beat of the heart.
Re: The DH2 and it's biggest drawback !
Hehe. Not a bad ground attack craft but useless in the role it was designed for.

Funny how the DH4 bomber was built at the same time and probably was a better fighter than the DH5 was...
The pilot shall be considered to have above-average intelligence and normal (average) common sense.
