Hi Tony

What do you do for a living? Ace fighter pilot perhaps?

Looks like you get the chance to be in contact with proper engineering - lucky you. Tell us more. can't find the gallery though and would like to- any directions? Paul.

Go back to the main Forum page, click on gallery towards the top, then go to the last page (nine at the moment). Bill Perrins flies for us - Ultimate High- www.ultimatehigh.co.uk - but also flies the Rolls-Roce Spitfire AND the Vulcan! He was at Kemble yesterday and the Tower wanted the Spitfire parked adjacent to our hangar.

Hardly! I'm an engineer - but I did get to marshall the Spitfire in - it's quite something having it taxi up close to you.

Quite so, two nice bits of British engineering tho'.

Best Wishes
