Still going strong…

Hi Kev,

(Long time no E-speak)

Your excellent report brought back memories of a similar trip I took in in ‘MSV at Coventry back in 1987 or ’88. We had stopped at Coventry for lunch on our way back to South Coast from a holiday in the North. I hadn’t realised AA offerred weekend circuit flights, and my other-half said “Go on then, finish off your holiday with a flight” – I didn’t need to be told twice.

I too remember the steep floor angle – it felt like you were mountaineering to get to your seats. The fleet were all carrying “50th Anniversary of the Dakota” logos back then – and some of them are still going strong pushing twenty (or so) years later.

Dakotas forever (I suspect)!

Best wishes for 2006 mate
