Pondskater should have added that he is a Shorts expert.:)

Well that’s very kind but I prefer enthusiast;) I’m OK when it comes to what Short Brothers were doing in the 1930s & 40s but Shorts in the 1980s is an area I have to go and look up. My current project involves meeting some former workers at Rochester but there are others here who know more about the Belfast operation.
And I love the internet too 😀
