    I was at that display too. The commentator was uber-god David Ogilvy. He may have been struggling for things to ay but as always, the depth of his knowledge knows no bounds.

    I await to see the changes made before passing comment.

    One thing I like to see (not sure if this is done) is for all the runway(s) length used on display days for visiting pilots. Attracts more custom to the display and for sunset days, likewise to the accommodation.

    They’re bloody lovely to fly! Chuckable with stick and rudder, held in by that huge leather harness and the wind in your face. Can’t beat it.

    I think Pete’s (the one I flew) is technically a Hawk Trainer too?

    Have tried formation flying in FS using Tiger Moths at only 90 knots multiplayer in the office here. It’s bloody difficult to keep a good, tight format partly due to poor interface between user and computer so good luck!

    I reckon we should continue our lunch trend from Hendon and seek the nearest purveyor for high quality all-day breakfast, tea and pud. If we can have a pint too, then it’s a win-win situation 😀

    Not to mention the weather! Have car, will travel.

    Flying is for fun, not travelling 🙂

    We “bombed” the Moehne in 2002 with three PA28s and two HR200 Robins. 🙂
