If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Excellent; that's a day out in the future once No1 Grandson is a wee bit (but not too much) older :-D

It's pretty good for the little-un's - plenty of Thomas rides, a zoo and a great playground.

Tesco vouchers are your friend.

Nothing picture worthy but I've started painting the pilots, did some filling on the P-40 and painted a second coat on the insides of the 109.

Hi Gents,

Ah - I'm going to have call this DNF - I've just been told that I've got to go and work in our Cambridge office for the next two weeks whilst some building work is being carried out in my office - the upshot of that is lot's of driving and the loss of my bench time at lunch.

Sorry about that - there's far too much to do on them before the 15th, and I'm really not happy with the P-40 at the moment.

I think I may well can future GB's until the Spitfire build next March.

Cheers

Stuart

Thats a right shame Stuart.
Finish it when you're able. We'd like to see it completed.

Try one of the Park and Rides, true they charge now but it might be easier and cheaper than struggling in through the traffic and paying city centre parking!.
