  1. Hi again Chris, Thanks for your latest note! Pleased to say there was no extra dry cleaning bill!! Not sure about the rest of the crew, but as far as I was concerned, despite my fright, once I realised I was still in control, I just did what I had to do!! That is RAF training for you!!

    I have picked up that a lot of people were miffed that the Canberrra parked blocking the view up the runway.... thus I guess the gasps would have been louder if it had not been there! ... and more pics and videos!!

    Yes it last flew 15 years ago, but what is amazing to me is that I did my last operational trip as a Squadron Commander in that aircraft in 1980 - and as a junior Captain, I collected it from the factory in 1963!!! If you are at Bruntingthorpe on the 30th, come and talk and if it works out, I could show you the cockpit either before or after the run if you would be interested. All the best. Bob

    I seem to remember someone (Might have been you) saying that they had never seen the trees at that angle before! Ohh how much was the dry cleaning bill? No problem mate.. I'll be there! It's kind of hard for me to believe that the Victor hadn't flown in 15 years, I am 15, it just seems weid that the year i was born that particular Victor went out of service! Don't know if that makes sence, but anyway! Chris

    I would like to congratulate you for an excellent job As my dad said you must have used about 5 of your 9 lives. I was down the crowd end when it happened and you could hear the crowd gasp! You were out by the time we got down there in the old Transit. Was amazing how you initially got it down on the grass. Best wishes Chris
