Hello atlantique!
Sorry to hear that the DC6's are to be grounded. I hope you are going to "preserve" them as such, maybe in ground running condition? Not really in the nature of Air Atlantique group to scrap anything as nice as a big piston liner!
You "Top Gear" comments noted, and I assume you saw their "white van man" antics on the 30th? Actually things like that, the cars converted into boats thing, and the caravan/car combo jumping over caravans are very funny, but I thought it was a motor show, ie testing cars you and I cannot afford, etc?
Dont get me wrong, I find the show hilarious, but it has morphed from what it was.
....Anyway, I prefer Vikki Butler-Henderson to Clarkson & Co,
BY the way atlantique, can you have a look at my "daks over central London" topic on this forum, and come up with a name for me? The founder of AA in Jersey, and possibly the connection with Doncaster Aero Club, was that I think he was previously the CFI before founding AA.
...but being so old, and covered in cocoa and slippers I am probably wrong....
