Great news about the RNHF Sea Fury and Swordfish. Here’s to a safe and snag free season for them and the Seahawk.!

3rd June 1990, my first airliner a Lockheed L-1011 of Air Transat (sadly no serial or piccy). Stansted to Toronto, drive to Vancouver and back, and return to Stansted two weeks later. Very smooth and reasonably quiet except when i went to the toilet at the rear of the aircraft.. boy that was noisy.
Being a nervous but excited Brit for me it was very reassuring looking out of the window and seeing ROLLS ROYCE on the side of the engines :).

Edit; Just remembered that due to the strength of the headwind we had to land for fuel at Goose Bay, Labrador. Good to see the resident but sadly stranded Avro Vulcan there as i stood in the doorway for a breather.

[QUOTE=UKAVIATOR;1716403]Director Tony Scott has confirmed that the long talked-about Top Gun 2 will take flight in the next couple of years and the scriptwriters have confirmed that Maverick is the main character. Now all we need is Tom Cruise and Val “Ice Man” Kilmer to sign on the dotted line.

I heard its to be based on the current front line RAF.. And that a squadron of Grob Tutors are being made available. 😀

Unless it was Vino! No Sir ! 😀
