P.S. Loved the DC6 on sunday, nearly took my roof off
Nearly took my head off . Not that I am complaining, that's the closest I've ever been to a DC-6 on take of and it really was magnificent!

Ray used to sort of dive in to the valley post the Bullock disaster, certainly recently I saw him disappear momentarily on various occasions... I reckon Nigel was within limits.

Cheers Go Smoke, I was looking the other way during the first AN-2 stall turn and turned to see this very large and stately aeroplane in a very unnatural attitude at very low level

All in all I'm glad I went.
