I flew my first dragger solo on this a/c on 11.8.88, G-BDBP 12.45/ 13.35. I have a photo as i taxied in canopy back two notches grin from ear to ear. I then went on to fly the tugs at H-B and another 1200hrs on Chippys to date.
I do not know what happened to this a/c but the group/club was run by some guy called Bill????? who would often fly it to the north of the field and perform poor aeros.
Slight thread creep here gentlemen. Does anyone have a pair or even just the port rear pedal for the F4 Phantom?
Waiting with hope.
Happy landings!!!!!
I recall viewing a Spitfire that had been recovered from just off the coast of Malta in the Museum. The pilot had ditched (a good idea as the fields in Malta are all tiny surrounded by stone walls)after being shot down. He had survived only to be posted back to Castle Bromwich, being killed some months after the ditching whilst on a test flight. I know that it was local to me and believe that was at Cannock, or was it MIRA (Nuneaton)
Sometimes the line is on the back. I just tripped myself up on evilbay. Waited smugly for a set of ‘original’ Sunderland notes to turn up with a couple of other publications. On opening the package there was the copyright on the back. £4.99 squandered!
Are you joking? £4.99p for a set of original notes!! If you thought that you would get anything original for a fiver you are nuts. You really need to shape up.
