You'd have got to meet me too if I hadn't been anti social and gone on Saturday. Mrs C's first (and probably last) trip to Duxford too... Grin

Not sure yet. Lots happening this year & to be honest I prefer the smaller events. Ask me nearer the time.

Oooohhhh, Ferocious Frankie and Big Beautifull Doll...I love those Mustangs. The last one is also visible in the movie Saving Private Ryan. Wink

I really wish I'd seen the flight with the Thunderbolt. If one could only imagine the sound...
