    LOL

    I wasnt talking about me (gloves now nice and clean thank you) but a drinking friend, he did his Tiger flight from a local strip near me. The owner is a customer. Thoroughly enjoyed it and is now going to NZ for his holidays over Christmas this year. he’s just upset that they wont loop a 747!!!!

    One thing pilots soon learn is NEVER give me the controls. 😀

    Never forget that your aircraft is flying because of Bernoulli’s THEORY; not rule, not Law but THEORY!!!

    Also if flying Military aircraft remember that it was built by the cheapest bidder!!.

    But seriously a trip in something old worked wonders for a close friend of mine. He had a flight in a Tiger Moth including aerobatics and was given the controls for a few minutes. Since then nothing seems to bother him.

    Thats great news. Its wonderful that people are preparred to invest their time and money in restoring these aircraft. Its even better when they let them get out and about.
