Dave,

I'll have to look into that, I'm not sure why we didn't originally go for her as I've only recently had a pier head jump into the job!

Ah.. in the wrong place at the wrong time!

I'm sure you'll do a great job with it mate. You know what's what and what's not and that's the important thing

Pleased th pilot was OK though must have come as a bit of a shock when he realised what was about to happen.

'The pilot was the only person on board and he walked away from the incident,' said a spokesman for the county's fire and rescue service

Bit of a silly statement that innit? :doho: I know there were times when a Hurri or a Spit went two up but that was during the war!!
