Stearman N63590 143 out of North Weald just south of the A12 near little Baddow having a lovely time
How fitting. one very happy man and well deserved.
I have no doubt in my mind that Just Jane will be airworthy and be the second flying Lancaster resident in the UK skies.
If I go back to the early 70s the thought of seeing a B17, B25, P51, P47, Spitfires by the squadron Hurricanes a Blenheim all kinds of Eastern block Migs Yaks Bf109s, Buchons the list could go on people would of said your dreaming of seeing any of those now days, now days are here and I thank each and every owner operator for taking the time money and effort to bring me the visions I see in the skies of the UK
To the Pantons and all involved at EK a thank you for taking this on, thank you for saving this aeroplane I cannot wait but wait I will.
Steaman doing lovely slow speed handling over the A12 between Witham and Boreham Essex just now
Great updates as usual YR thank you for keeping us up to date on movements
Excellent.
It reminded me of the Silksheen poem but I cannot remember how it goes but ends something like, “my lovely Silksheen”
30 years, 30 YEARS!!!!! where has that gone? half my life away but feels like a few years not decades
Fantastic skill that pilot needs one hell of a pat on the back.
