Aaah that makes sense now, I thought he was on about dodgy things lol.

Talking about flying the day before/after disasters, I departed on a Dan-Air 1-11 who’s wings looked not too disimilar to a patchwork quilt the day after the Airtours disaster at MAN, I was only young one but I remember taking great pride in reminding the passengers in the cabin about that burnt out wreck at the side of the runway. I remember the take-off was like a rollercoaster – up a bit, down a bit, up a bit more, drop a bit, up a bit more again. They don’t make em like they used to.:D
