Damn Felix I've only just seen this on the news myself and was about to post it. You must have had a lot of coffee this morning to be that on the ball this early!!!!

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Believe it or not this is one of things I remember well. I would have been 14 years old at the time & the World was my lobster. Buddy Holly & the Crickets were top of the charts with "That'll Be The Day". 8) Wink
