    I know it’ll get more people watching Ch4 tonight, but I wish they could have
    held this back until after the programme had aired. :diablo:

    “Fly For Your Life”……except nobody would believe it! πŸ˜‰

    I bought that back in 1968, when there were lots of books coming out for the RAF’s 50th Anniversary. Lent it to my cousin and never got it back. :diablo:
    One the plus side, I did recently find my copy of Ginger Lacey, Fighter Pilot.

    I did consider putting in a bid, but keeping that grass cut would be such a chore :rolleyes:

    It’s always difficult recommending car insurance companies, other than for reliability and service.
    Costs can vary so much according to where you live, and your personal circumstances.
    What’s cheapest for one, may be the most expensive for another.

    Just stating the obvious I know. πŸ™‚

    It doesn’t always pay to stay with the same insurer, as there is no loyalty discount.
    In fact the opposite often applies.

    I use Swinton for my car, and AA for my van.

    TA,

    On a matter of strict technicality for inclusion in/on this thread can one Post ‘unusual’ instances observed on http://www.flightradar24.com/. Or does one have to shufti the crates with one’s own personal shuftiscopes?

    Resmoroh

    Coincidentally I just had an email from a friend, saying that he has just tracked N928NA
    down to 1500ft, presumably going into Mildenhall ?

    It was apparently talking and tracking via Edinburgh Radar at some point during its’ flight.

    Between Silk and Cyanide, by Leo Marks. Detailing his work with SOE, and
    how nobody would believe him, when he said that the Dutch resistance had
    been compromised.

    Very good πŸ™‚

    There was a comedy series on a few years ago, where they parodied news
    and weather reporters, Broken News. The one I liked was when they took the mickey out
    of the short lived trend, for news readers delivering their stories while standing up.

    Must say, I am getting a little worried about you Alan, well, I mean, it’s not normal, is it?. I would have thought something like Beyonce would be more appropriate :diablo:
