Ah... TG 517 I remember her. I was sent 'solo' in her. Obviously with a crew, but the big man in charge actually got off and launched me with a Co pilot!

When I left 1066 I 'stole' my pilots notes. Many years latter I visited Newark and they told me the pilots notes for the aeroplane had been stolen. I therefore donated mine to this museum.

Thankyou for the pictures of the flight deck.

I remember the comments of the fence going at Lindholme. It was said that it bounced on the road before the fence, took out two wheel sized holes in the fence, bounced on the piano keys, and went round.

ATC was said to have radioed 'two points and a refusal'.
