Hi shackman,
Thanks for your reply. Your opinion is an interesting insight, and nice to hear you worked with my father. I was recently visiting my Mother in the old family home near Forres and I visited Kinloss air museum with my daughter. Home is enough to trigger memories, but the air museum, especially the smell, and chatting with the guys working there really brought memories flooding back.
Thanks again I might just PM you.
All the best.
