Gotta be honest, thought it was a fair bit more expensive than that - like, a-1-in-front-of-it more, so no-brainer, life is short, and you can’t take it with you.
If I was actually earning any money, and wasn’t spunking most of what I do have left on a ruin, I’d not hesitate
And don’t stint: go full monty - the time’ll hurtle by in a blur!
I often call in to Kemble airfield for a coffee whilst out on the bike. This year have sat watching the spit doing passenger trips on a few occasions …coming and going. Big treat as the flightline is very close just a few metres away from the general public. They have a piper or something which goes up with the Spit It looks like family and friends go up in that for a view.
Makes me miss my RAF days.
Did you know a warm 301 smells like the inside of a Shackleton…?
Think it was QI with Stephen Fry saying that when he had a flight in a Tornado the pilot looked at him sat in the seat “ummed and arred” a bit and then muttered “oh well” and carried on.
After the flight he asked what concerned him and the pilot said because of your height if we had to eject you would have left your knees behind.
