Why have you had to bring your political views into it? What the hell's it got to do with the government?

That apart, what nobody seems to be able to get into their heads, with the notable exception of GeeRam, is that Flying Legends is TFC's event. If it doesn't make financial sense to them, it doesn't matter how many brilliant, off-the-wall, out-of-the-box, left-field, or another current cobblers ideas anybody suggests, it's not going to happen. And again in current terminology - full stop. Anything more than 15 minutes or so flying time isn't worth even considering.

A seaside event, I am reliably informed by elderly relations in Bournemouth, is a great event. One of these days I might even get there but however good it is, it wouldn't and couldn't be Legends as it could never work that way.
