    Count me in.

    I used to be (in)famous for my slide shows at MAPS/MAM meetings.

    Would be chuffed to organise one for the forum meet – if nobody else does (and I can access the Museum/my slide collection).

    In the current “Wrecks and Relics” it is listed under Hollington on the B2159 west of Hastings.

    Meteor T.7 WL345 at St. Leonards Motors in Church Wood Drive and is on a pole.

    Anyone got a photo?

    Wow, someone buy the firecrew a pint on me.

    Considering how volatile the surrounding structure is I am happily suprised at relatively small amount of damage – glad no injuries.

    I have a copy of his book ‘ A Time to Fly’ that charts all his flights and proving adventures etc etc. Its a bl**dy good read

    I’d had my copy a couple of years before I got round to reading it – shouldn’t have waited.

    I thought I’d got all of Nevil Shute’s books but I’ve never heard of Pilotage.

    Time to go searching.

    I have a Renault 12 S 00, this is a license built Argus 411, which I hope will run again later this year. The only thing I still need are some watertight spark plugs.

    and an airframe to fit it in???? LOL

    Nasty, hoping no one was hurt.

    Looking at the shadow of the prop on the ground it seems un-bent so the Yak was presumably static and the Falcon ran into it?
