Canberra article

Thanks gents,I appreciate your comments.:D

I have written a few articles for the Classic Flight magazine, but this was my first ‘published’ one and my thanks to Gary Parsons for hosting it.

My main reason for doing it was to bring Chris’s efforts to the publics attention.
I am sure most folks thought, A, Why isn’t the Canberra flying this season and then B, Oh Air Atlantique’s engineers must have done the work.
When in reality, most of the work was / is done, by a small team of volunteers and in addition to their normal jobs.

I hope to do another one about the Operational side of the Canberra, somtime this season.
If you would like to see what else I have done then why not buy a copy of the Classic Flight magazine at a display/ pleasure flying event this year,they aren’t that expensive ,honest!

Cheers, Alan.

Ps The Tractor has ‘stalled’ at the mo………….
I hope to get on with it some time in the next month or so, I will post some pictures of the progress.
