70plus - I did indeed stay in Concertina city, but I didnt get my holiday tan until November 83...My VC10 flight down from BZN was cancelled due to a fleet grounding due to an aileron problem I think...anyone else recall? But 14 hours in a C130 was a poor substitute!
But my return to Blighty in May 84 was indeed courtesy of a VC10..XV106.. a cargo fit, but empty, apart from a couple of rows of seats at the back...I think there were about 6 of us as pax...
We did manage a game of football with a tennis ball on the way back, tripping over the track rollers!...until the ball hit the cabin door got hit hard by a flying volley, and one of the crew came out and told us "turn it in"
Can I claim the only football game played in an airborne VC10?
