Talking XW895

Just checked my log book and I have 4.10 in this fine aircraft - did my D8 (Circuits with emergencies - wow!) with Jan Criddle back on the 22 May 1979, then my D10 again with Jan Criddle (the engine off landing sortie where the Beefer has to check that there are only 2 skid marks and not 3!). Then flew it again on the 12 and 16 Jul 79 for my D42 (GFP Revision) and D28 (Confined area landings!) both with Nige North. Ah happy days!

Oh - by the way - I too remember Samantha in the Beehive - 1013 as the back bar used to be called! Don't think I ever experienced the marshmallow - but the ping pong balls stick in my mind.............or was it...............my..........?
