    Carole and I still have our “Pilots Log Book” with our flight details although mine is a little haphazard due to the crew parties!

    Memories

    That brings back some great memories. It was 30th January 2004 when Carole and I flew in the tanker. An unbelievable experience. I was also allowed to go on the flight simulator which was a scary thing as at that stage I had no interest in actually flying a plane. Now I will do anything to get a ride in a plane. (well almost!)

    Thanks

    Thanks for the welcome, it is a great forum
    I was fortunate enough to get a ride in an RAF VC10 tanker a few years ago refuelling Tornados over the North Sea. An incredible experience, will try to find some photos.
    Anyway here is a photo of an Air Malawi VC10 at the end of its life.

    VC10 FLY

    [ATTACH]208833[/ATTACH]

    [ATTACH]208834[/ATTACH]I actually own the cherished registration number VC10 FLY (as well as DC10 FLY). It is currently on my VW Golf. I have also had the number registered in Ohio. I am a lifelong fan of the VC10. I was fortunate enough to work as a BOAC steward for a few years in the early 1970’s. I met my wife Carole, a BOAC stewardess, whilst working on the VC10 and we have now been married for 40 years. I even have VC10 on my cufflinks, how sad!!
