An empty DC-6 positioning Frankfurt-Hannover and on to Brussels, then Brussels-Munich in a Modern Air CV-990.

An old DC-8 Frankfurt-LGW-Denver.

A Dragon Rapide from Portsmouth, my first flight.

A Tiger Moth from a Russian Army Hind base near Magdeburg, my first looping. My second looping was in a Jet Provost from North Weald, and my third in a Yak-52 above Brighton Pier in March this year.

A Proctor from White Waltham to Toussus via LGW, 1963.

A Citation from Jo'burg to Cape Town ten years ago.

An East African VC-10 from Frankfurt to LHR.

A Twin Comanche from near Paris to Cairo, down the Nile to Abu Simbel, up to Amman and down to Aqaba.

Rhodos to Egelsbach in a Cessna 337, glorious view of the Alps.

A similar view of the Alps from the flightdeck of a LH A321 at a specially requested FL200 (just for lickle me).

LH's JU-52 from Egelsbach to Biggin Hill two years ago, followed Sally B in, tragic show though.

An empty Eagle Viking from Blackbushe in 1958.

And a British Eagle Viscount on which I emigrated in 1965.

Lots of wonderful memories.

May they continue (to be added to)!
