    Bex – I would take him to Kemble on that Sunday. I really would if I was you.

    Would love to, but I doubt he’d drive that far as hes disabled & as I have all me limbs I cant drive his car, shame it goes like stink for an auto LoL. If you have any links for Kemble, could u drop em in a PM please 😀 Bex

    Peter,

    In this instance I have to disagree with you on this one. I for one am quite happy to allow visitors in the cockpit. At the moment the only thing that works is the pilots bang seat goes up & down and im proud of that LoL :diablo: Eventually when I do get things working hopefully people will be able to both learn & enjoy their time in the seat and more importantly come back again. If anyone is interested I will be at both open days at GAM this weekend, and if u see me working on the Cranberry please dont hesitate to disturb me as I’ll be more than happy to show people around. One thing, I for one would love for Malcom to allow me a guided tour of his amazing work, and thanks for Les’s hardwork on his website keeping the updates flowing on Malc’s progress. Bex

    Sorry, Bill Gates hasn’t been mentioned since post 3!:D

    Correct, however, 1. Ive only just noticed the thread & 2. I thought it was a thread about Bill Gates having a Mosquito. Oh well never mind, sorry folks. Bex

    Lets hope its just a rumour, cant stand Gates on the best of days, this would really take the biscuit. Before I get shot down in flames, his cash would be great for the heritage aviation world. Bex

    Stampe,

    Having reread my post, it seems the impression can be given that I assume his guilt, I did not mean for this impression. However, I quite agree with you 100% that fatigue is more important, and would you believe that when the law about drugs & alcohol was brought in for us (us being rail, shipping& aircraft) that the idiots in charge wanted the limit to be ZERO, until doctors pointed out that the body naturally produces alcohol. As for fatigued crews, this seems to be no problem whatso ever and I for one, having been there crawling under thousands of tonnes of train think this is totally immoral. So STampe you hit the nail squarely on the head.

    I just hope that the National Press leave this guy (and family) alone until his case has been heard.

    If 9 microgrammes is the limit then why bother drinking in the 1st place? It really can’t be worth putting your career on the line for that amount o’ bevvy ?

    Ren, we had exactly the same limit on the railways, for all operational staff, and youre right, why blow your job for what would equate to no more than one drink? Its downright stupidity that this guy planned to fly and if he is over the limit then I hope he is fired, he knew the rules he blew it.

    So if Spitfires dont have fatigue index, how is fatigue measured? Especially I was under the impression that part of the reason for an aircrafts retirement was down to fatigue? Bex
