Hi hrdoktors
Interesting stamp. I didn't recognize the aircraft and looked it up. The stamp shows a Percival P66 Pembroke, now Hunting Percival. Not frequently seen on stamps. According to Wikipedia, two were sold to Finland. One crashed, the other is now in the Aviation Museum of Central Finland. Thanks for posting it. Don StampHinger

New stamp from France showing the Canadair water bomber: I saw three of them flying at low altitude in close formation while on vacation last week. Usually not a good sign, but they were apparently on a training run.

Knowing that José Projecto designed this series of 1994 stamps for hunting, I couldn't help but place this souvenir sheet here. Yes, it's unrealistic that an airport bird control person having no safety vest with his Peregrine Falcon and dog scaring off birds would be so close to the Lockheed L-1011-385-3. But the scene is still cool. Scott: 2012

hrdoktorx these took me back to my early teen-years collecting, armed only with a Scott catalog and b/w pictures. I thought these ro be interesting with their bit “crude” design (compared to the flashy bicolors of the Mozambique Company of which I had a few.)
