Hi,
I finally got around to uploading the video clips from my Just Jane Taxi Ride of November 2004. I was lucky enough to be on the light deck – squashed behind a old chap who had been a flight engineer on Halifax’s. YouTube flv’s don’t really do the experience justice – on the second vid there is an over flight of Jags, but this is difficult to see.
I also have plenty of exterior shots of the taxi run, but these are quite common on Yt, so for now its just these…

Thanks guy’s. I cannot believe it was nearly 3 years ago:eek: I really must do it again, especially now there are tail up fast taxi’s.
Bex – wear something warm! I am a soft southerner and could not believe how cold it got. Those clips were all taken on our run which was in the morning. After lunch the clouds came in and it absolutely p***ed down during the afternoon run. Horizontal rain!! But I bravely stood by and video’d.
