Wheels Up Check Out

[QUOTE=JW411;7187324]I recently re-read "Heavenly Days" by James Pelly-Fry. Towards the end of the book he tells stories of sharing a Devon with the Air Attache in Ankara when he was in Tehran in 1957-1958. There is a photograph of the front end of the Devon but no clues as to its identity.[/QUOTE


I have a copy of that around so will dig out. Seem to recall a 'wheels up' incident (Devon) when 'new user' being checked out by former user !!!,and a 'day out' to Cornwall in a Bomber 'escorted' by many Spitfires to use the beach at Portreath.
