I quite agree with archieraf… a terrifying situation indeed. Glad you pulled throught it ok though.

As an arm waver with the VAC (and occaisionally the Moth Club) and one who runs a team of marshallers… we walk aircraft when required and we do occaisionally swing a prop when required… often crews at our events carry either chocks or a passenger do swing so we don’t do it too often but I have seen a number of pilots swing their own aircraft from behind the prop… A very unnerving thing to watch no matter how “experienced” the pilot… I’ve seen an Auster make a 270 degree trun just to get off a runway. Needless to say we then walked him in.

The restorable bits that are now in the UK were last known to be at Spanhoe… Hope that is of some use.
Lovely pictures thanks.

I should think the Dragon will be G-ECAN as Iolar (the Irish one) was last seen in the back of a hangar in Eire gathering dust whilst Aer Lingus sorted themselves out.
The other Raipde could also be any of the following:
Proteus G-AEML, the BEA schemed one G-AGSH or G-AKIF…

All the BB housemates are asleep all over the house. All except Nermal who is padding around looking for a new quiet warm spot to curl up in. On seeing Arm Waver, Nermal lashes out, claws extended but due to the dazzle from AW’s Hi-Viz jacket, Nermal misses and slashes the wine box. Ashley still asleep smells the wine and instictively moves under the flow of wine… Nermal saunters off curling up like a hair piece on Flood’s head…

Now 4 dead…
Thoughts with friends and families.

There was a picture here in the UK of G-SEXI (?) and G-AIDS in the same parking line. How times changed from when G-AIDS was registered…
Someone has registered G-FUKM and FCUK in this country… Not too impressed witht he first one personally.
G-DAIR was reregistered from G-BURK as the pilot was apparently getting a bit tired of the jibes…
