Smiler Marshall lived next door to my parents. He was often to be found out and about with his ‘minder’ as my mother called him. A couple of summers back my parents were hosting a party, obviously everybody must have been enjoying themselves as Smiler arrived to see what all the noise was about! ‘It’s alright Albert, there’s no Germans here’ was his minder’s leaving remark!
RIP Smiler.

Thanks chaps π
A few more.

It (the VC-10, that is!) sounded good though.
Just in case anyone believes their instructor to be really cool customers, it is worth noting that they are trained to only sweat on the right side of their faces!

You’ve stopped me from doing any work now … grrr π

I hope it’s not a stall close to the ground. I always avoid those when I’m flying.
I know you always hold your head high, but how do you get down then?
Well done Melv.
