Oh my, does that take me back even though I had not joined CBFS until 2005 but I certainly went to Coventry in 2006 and met up with DaveB, Ben, Delp and a few more whose names escape me. Had a thoroughly good day out there and very hard to believe how quickly time has flown.

Regards
Nigel.

Thanks for that gents. What a fine body of men although it’s a good job the devil didn’t cast his net that day!
I recall meeting DelP after a flight in the Dove/Sea Devon in 2006. I seem to recall meeting you again Ben at Coventry sometime later when you had driven down especially to get a flight in the TwinPin because it was being piloted by Bruce Dickinson.
Whenever I was working in that area I’d always try to find time for a diversion to COV for a look to see if anything was happening. I don’t think the boss ever found out! :thumbsup: EricT

That is quite right we did meet Eric, I doubt very much whether there will be another meet up someday, somewhere, but who knows!! :dunno:

I remember this although I wasn't there, I think Trevor Clark had offered me a lift up to Coventry, but for whatever reason, I didn't go in the end.
