Hi Mate

I seem to remember the RAF had a few Navajo's on flight back in the 70's & 80's

might be wrong, just rings a bell. :dunno:

used to see one regularly out of Northolt when i worked in Heston Middx.

Hi Mate

Hawk is fine
at the stage where no matter how many hours i sit here correcting it still looks the same :dunno:
still got loads to do but doesn't seem to be moving forwards like it was :-(

But it's getting there.

Rick
