When I was a young lad I had a real yen for some books like, Biggles Flies East, Biggles Flies West, etc. There was quite a series and if I remember rightly Squadron Leader Biggles had many adventures chasing spies, etc., always in his aircraft. You wouldn't perhaps be named after him? Also Salisbury brings back memories -- spent time on the Plain in Army cadet camps -- once had a demonstration flight display of a couple of Meteors, a Canberra? (flying a lot closer than would be expected at a civilian display) and also a small observation plane which the pilot put nose up and then actually flew down and backwards for a bit before powering up and continuing in forward flight. |

Aviation on a shipping forum? The perfect place for BOAC-Cunard (or Cunard Eagle).
|
A Sunderland?
