633 Squadron Messenger

Great to see my old Messenger G-AKBO in the opening sequences of 633 Squadron.

Neville Browning certainly displayed the agility and STOL performance well, getting it out of a smal field and then a hard crank left to avoid a tree!

A pity that a similar survival story cannot be told in respect of the gorgeous Mossies.

Hurrah for wood! The Messie is also made of 'Natures Composite'.

KBO is on a Star Annual currently but will hopefully be airborne in time for G-VFWE.

THere is every chance that I might be invited to carry on flying it (doesn't that have to be the best deal ever?!)
