    Proposed itinerary

    I could for example rent a minibus (VW Caravelle) on the weekend 23-26 April from 12:00 Friday to 12:00 Monday. This would enable me to pick up visitors from the Ryanair-served airport (Säve), deliver them to the hotel, then take them next day to Linköping for a whole day at the RDSwAF Museum at Linköping. Back to Gothenburg for a day’s sightseeing before returning Sunday or Monday to the UK. How about that? Any takers, please contact me via private messages.

    I was thinking of a car-load of 4 but of course there could be more than one car . . .
    I guess we should be communicating by E-mail about this, are you able to contact me? I am a newcomer to the site and haven’t figured out all the possibilities yet!
    Regards from Peter

    I hope you don’t mind if I put up one of my photos from a recent visit to Cosford – after all, you have invited pix!
    Incidentally, how do you upload more than one photo at a time on to this site?

    If you are referring to the British Aircraft Civil Register, my 1985 edition has B/u meaning broken up on page 9. What is your context? If you really want to know, you ought to give us out here a little more information, we are trying to help!!!

    Broken up?
    A guess would be easier if we knew the context

    Apropos Cosford, I was very surprised on my first visit there recently to see this, the last ever aircraft I flew in while a Chief Tech in the RAF. I used to be the only passenger on radar calibration flights and remember the Dundee cake part of the rations very well!
    Incidentally, I was unable to get luch in the Cosford cafe because they didn’t accept Visa cards – very annoying as I was visiting from Sweden and had insufficient UK cash on me.
    Enjoy your visit!

    Many thanks, Mark L, I’m more into historic really, but sometimes see unusual commercial aircraft on my travels. I also wanted to see how my pix would appear on the site!
    Tack ska du ha, as they say in this part of the world!

    Another visitor at Nice was N737CC, shown here. I’d also like to know a little more about it, since there are no logos on it.
    Any clues?
    Sorry about the picture quality, but the Avro window was not too clean!
