Re: Airspeed - Mike Johnson
Please pass on good wishes to Mrs Airspeed on our behalf I have indeed been doing that, Pete and I've also sent her the link to this thread in the hope she can take some small comfort from the good wishes for Mike's recovery and the obvious high regard in which he's held by the forum members. Pete

He's not able to eat much but, other than paracetamol and fluids, there's not a lot that can be done - I'll let you know of any deve...

Re: Bag the Hun
Back in 2016 I made a display board for Tangmere based in this booklet. https://i.imgur.com/TxmWIse.jpg Whenever I see anyone standing in front of it trying to do the calculations, I have great fun reminding them that they had to be done at altitude while you and your opponent's aeroplanes were mano...

The least Pete could have done was to be on the boat, drinking Gin, and offering slurred words of support for Christine. ;) Brian I did that on her solo Channel attempt, Brian but never again! Shortly after we set off at crack of sparrow, the weather, which had been forecast on the limits for the s...
