All very interesting. You just hope the 30 min. timer is working correctly. Imagine just crossing the threshold
and it suddenly goes dark !!

How does this work ?

Surely the biggest problem with aircraft like this, is the English weather ?
They very soon start to look rather tatty.

I think you can put that idea out of your mind. Not because I don’t JJ will ever fly but because I don’t think we’ll ever see the Canadian one this side of the pond again. I would dearly love to be proved wrong and see her come over for the season the same year JJ does her first year on the airshow circuit. Now that would definitely be worth selling the house, the wife, the kids and the cat to see.

How could you do that to your cat ? 🙁

I’ve seen a lot of people at Duxford wearing the tour hat so you will definitely need the Times and the carnation. I’ll be wearing a hat that has ‘Grumpy Old Man’ on it. 😀

I shall also have the wife (trying to look interested) in tow 🙂

My wife and I plan to be there this Friday. I just hope there is some activity, as the weather forecast is favourable.
I shall probably be wearing my “Lancaster Tour” baseball cap, a copy of the times under my arm, and a red carnation
behind my left ear. So if anyone wants to say hello.

P.S. I was lying about the times and the carnation 🙂

What a shame that the Lancasters are not allowed to fly lower.

Sally-B at 1:35pm, flying north over Southend.
