my god you must be tall….

I thought I would resurrect this thread in the hope that someone can come up with a good recommendation for a pub with aviation connections somewhere in the Tempsford / Grafton Underwood / Kimbolton / Podington / Polebrook circuit. Doing that tour on Friday, so any advise gratefully received.

Gene Carson was a tail gunner at Podington in ww2 and use to drink in a pub in nearby Rushden. His book ‘Wingding’ (see amazon) is a good read. I can dig out the book and find the pub if you want.

I was in contact with him in recent years in the course of my Podington research – he’s a nice bloke.

P-51 – CADILLAC OF THE SKY! 😀

exactly! or in this case – cadillac of just above the ground..:D

Biggin Hill please – right over my house!

I shall stand naked in the garden saluting!

the subject has been done to death anyway – no great loss!

You guys can discuss the pros and cons all day if you like… I’m just going to sit here with my coffee and think about how amazingly wonderful it will be to see a Vulcan in the skies again. I never dreamed I would ever see another one, and now there’s a very good chance that I will – I feel like a kid at christmas !

Roy.

Seconded!
