Once again thanks for all your kind words. Much appreciated, and thank you to all those that stopped to talk to me at the classic jets meeting to wish me well on Friday.
Regards Al.
Paradrop.... No I went with an instructor called Sean. Top guy and an avid modeller to boot. I found that out at the top of a big loop when I told him that my model T-6 would have flicked on me by that point

As for the Spitfire experience....... Are you kidding!!!!!! Just tell me what I need to do and where I need to be, and as long as it doesnt involve losing my thumbs I am up for whatever it takes
