    Ah ……so it’s “the wheel associated with the elevator on the tail” not “the tailwheel”. You would have to be pretty stupid to think you could wiggle the tailwheel from the cockpit, wouldn’t you? (I think I’ll crawl away from the forum now before anyone else notices………)

    Thanks Baz -excellent forum

    I’ve just found a history of IAS which confirms that they also operated pleasure flights from Croydon and Northolt during the period in question. Thank you so much for the response.

    Thank you, that sounds a likely hit. Low probability that a rival with the same aircraft type were operating in close proximity.

    Unless Monique was a bloke, unlikely. It was all very embarrassing in retrospect. My elder brother was spending his 7/6 birthday present, I went to see him off, and this seven foot tall figure in a blue uniform with stripes on said “Who’s this then? I think we’ve got room for a little one…”
