Not to mention the immortal verse :-

Van Gogh did some eye-ball pleasers
He must have been a pencil squeezer
He didn’t do the Mona Lisa
That was an Italian geezer

I grew up in Reading in the 1960’s , and have memories of seeing Argosies and Beverleys flying over fairly regularly (from Abingdon ?) I was taken on a few trips to Heathrow , but sadly I can’t remember much about it other than it always seemed to be raining !

Turbo NZ ,

If you would like to experience warbird flying relatively locally , the P-40 at Ardmore (ZK-CAG) does give passenger rides on occasions. My flight was arranged through a British aviation tour group , but if you are interested , the aircraft is operated by a company called Pioneer Aero Restoration. Their address is :-

458 Corsair Lane, Ardmore Airport, Papakura, Auckland.

There are some pictures of it (and other NZ P-40s) here :-

Biggin Hill in the 1980’s , the only time I saw a Sunderland fly. One of my favourite aircraft , and a very graceful display.

Xavier de Lapparent in the Su 26 at Farnborough – I had no idea any aircraft could do things like that !

Mike Bannister was also Chief Pilot for some of the BA short-haul fleet (including the A319 / A320 I believe) , and he will be continuing in this role.

Apart from humans , the Armadillo is the only other creature which can suffer from leprosy.

Does anyone know how to get on to this ‘6 year waiting list’ for genuine Spitfire flights ?
