Oh dear!!! 😉
I started out in my original statement with “Hoping not to put the proverbial cat amongst the pigeons” and it seems I have done just that!!!.
Let me clear up a few points……….Mr Pilkington, I said that I bow to your superior knowledge as a mark of respect!!, I am a young pup and still learning so when someone in the know points me in the right direction then I thank them, Your comments were taken as humourous and educative and nothing more.
To Fluffy and Guzziniel with regards to the rash comment on Lancs lasting better in Oz then maybe I was a bit quick with that one and I appologise whole heartedly, I have travelled to a large amount of museums in the UK and seen some airframes that have succumed to poor British weather and my initial thought was that an airframe in Australia would stand a better chance of longevity if stored outside.
I have nothing but swelling pride for all the great Lancasters that are preserved and understand that there is a very big preservation movement for these magnificent lady’s, Everytime I visit these gracefull creatures a donation is allways made and I hope very much one day to take my two young daughters to see ‘Just Jane’ on full song.
So to finish this off, Please, My comments were uneducated and meant no harm so have a little consideration when educating us ‘young-uns’, After all we must nurse the seeds of future preservation enthusiasts.
Regards to all,
John.
