But they were never on the viewing balcony…. There was however a Comet nose up there…..

I sat in the back of an aircraft doing various forms of roll etc on Sunday, however I have no idea what controls etc were usedI was too busy taking pics and hanging on to notice.

Either that or the Dutch P-51D was my thought

Any idea of the ID and history for the Harvard though???

Yes, check out: http://www.goodwood.co.uk/aviation/

My reason for asking was that I recall that at their airshow in 1986 (from memory) Jet Heritage operated their Red JP from there.

As for coming for a visit, yes I may well be doing that soon. I think Goodwood would be better than Shoreham which is my other option for flying to Sussex.

Could I ask why you asked the question Phillip?

That will be me then!!!! Taken at Earls Colne in 91 / 92

Does Charles Kemp still own Mary Mine?? I know he had it for sale at one point.

In theory you could I guess if it were long enough, however what happens if you fly when the grass has just been cut? Would you really want to risk all the grass cuttings being sucked up by the engine? Mind you it would make a hell of a garden-vac wouldn’t it.

Is Goodwood an all grass airfield does anyone know?
