Happy Birthday Andy,

You have been gone for over a year, hope you come back soon.
I'm late to the party as ever, but hear hear.

I did say HB to him elsewhere though. :)

Re: Wings & Wheels Dunsfold 25th August 2018

Nice photos Toby. Good to see ZA150 getting a lot of interest even though she wasn't brought onto the runway for the show (which is disappointing - but not their fault :S ). I hope you get a chance to come up to see her sister sometime. :)

Re: Happy Birthday To Hot_Charlie (37_ and jonesey2k (32 today...

Happy Birthdays Chris and Mark. On a Saturday no work I hope. :welldone: :welldone: Funny you should say that... All day spent back at Brize Norton fundraising for our VC10 (ZD241/G-ASGM) at Bruntingthorpe. Made over £1000 so well worth it - that'll pay for about 1500 yards of taxiing! :) Thanks al...

Re: RAF Scampton to Close.

You would think that this country would have learnt its lesson from the Second World War and the Falklands conflict. It takes a lot longer to rearm nowadays. The problem being Scampton would need complete rebuilding anyway. Essentially it's a (very tired) runway, a couple of hangars and a few other...

Re: Tom Everitt AFG reaches 37 today

If you're reading, happy birthday Tom! I haven't seen him since attempting to follow him down the motorway from MAN after a talk about the VC10 given about 11 years ago by another CBFSim member onboard the Trident. I believe after Air Atlantique / Classic Flight, he joined a business aviation compa...

Re: Win the Just Flight VC10 - and a ride on the jump seat!

The runway isn't that bad - hit the sweet spot speed wise though and the '10 will taxi along like Tigger. :lol: Hello Charlie, when you next do a fast taxi run in the VC10 any chance of you doing a video of it maybe from the pre-engine start? Regards Nigel. Can't see why not, as long as we have the...

Re: Win the Just Flight VC10 - and a ride on the jump seat!

If you ever visited Brunty Nigel, I'm sure with enough warning we could find a way to get you aboard to have a look around. You're probably right about the bumpy driving though! :) Very many thanks Charlie, if I ever get the chance to go then that would be great. It was only when I viewed the video...

Re: Win the Just Flight VC10 - and a ride on the jump seat!

Boy, would I love the chance to be on the fast taxi run but unfortunately all that bouncing around in the cockpit along the runway would be too much for my disability let alone get up the stairs. :(( Regards Nigel. If you ever visited Brunty Nigel, I'm sure with enough warning we could find a way t...
