It's a good thing they didn't have to rely on some of Ian's cars.

Good read Chris

Sad that they didn't know about the NZ one which is now flying again - or is that the aircraft they are referring to ?

Anybody up for a whip-round

Anybody else spot the short clip of a Boston? They used it twice by reversing the film.
SWMBO also got tired of them labouring the point the presented was in a wheelchair. That said you can't deny he enjoyed his flight in her (the Mossie not the wife
).

Must go and brush up my aircraft recognition. I thought it was a Hampden!

I was aware that the sircraft had been rebuilt in NZ, and flown in airshows there. Very remiss of them not to mention that.

I had no idea it was the same one
After their claims it was the only one flying and they had given the impression it was something they'd achieved, I checked and found out it was the same one.
