Duxford 04-09-03

Hello guys and gals 🙂

For those of you who are planning a trip to Duxford tomorrow (Thursday) for the Press Preview, or in the hope of seeing some flying…

The S.A.A 747 will be displaying at approx 12.30 pm, followed by Christian Moullec and his Crane team at 12.40pm (again approx time)…and finally the Wright Flyer replica will be performing a taxi run…the 747 is expected to display at 300ft so should be quite a sight!

Sure this will interest some of you 🙂

Maybe Carolyn will forget to do up Ms Greer’s straps or something and roll inverted – over the sea would be nice, over concrete would be better, and the results more appreciated 😉 😉

Because she wouldn’t appreciate a flight in a proper aircraft 😀 😎 :p

Here’s an idea. It sounds like Ms Greer may just be a little jealous because flying is more exciting that fertlising pansies. I reckon a flight in a Spitfire would sort her out.

How about creating a documentry (Ren Frew – are you listening?) entitled “Two Sheilas and a Spitfire”. Think about it.

Digby… in answer to your question…Yes

I have had run in’s with her in the past and NO I don’t particularly like the lady and after working for 7 years at Duxford for many of the companies and seeing how much work they put in she hacks me off. I know the residents of the village she lives on the outskirts of have had enough of her unprovoked and slanderous attcks on there village in the past too.

Looks like we may have a secret weapon in Digby to deal with a certain Australian ‘lady’.

Looking at some of Digby’s previous posts he sounds just the man to ‘charm’ her with subtle sweet nothings. 😀 😀

Digby

I have no desire to meet her. And I will excercise my right to slag her off as long as she continues to use her undeserved, privileged position to comment on things she knows nothing about In a way that causes damage to a place that I enjoy and love.

“Where back to Australia? Oh I forgot, they wouldnt want her.”

Apparently she doesn’t want to go back to Australia unfortunately! She has said in the past that the place should be ‘liberated from the white man’ and given back to the Aboriginies,or words to that effect.Looks like we’re stuck with her!!

10 minutes to let the wake turbulence dissipate 😀

At 300ft you should feel the tip vortices at the crowd line:D 😀
