Dearest Whirly

Missed you I too drove today as it was defo not suitable for VFR!

I thought the whole setup was excellent. Met a load of peeps I know and introduced myself to some I didn't. My new special freind is called Roger and is something big in the PFA

Catering was good and the hot brown liquid I bought actually tasted of coffee.
I found the a/c stands more than willing to let me sit/play/interfere with thier kit, thought the chap with the TBM850 seemed a tad nervous I might break something.

Fellow Yorkhireman, Ivan Shaw (yes positive) was cock-a-hoop at receiving EASA type approaval for his Liberty, which don't half lookey likey a tri-gear Europa.

As for Cirrus and C'lumbia: it's gonner be a hard decision if ever the numbers come up on the lottery

All in all It's worth the effort if just for the Bimbo on the Flymap stand. How does she walk in those heels all day?

Oh, and the chaps and chapesse (Hello Jo) on the CAA stand were disarmingly pleasant, knowledgable and helpfull. Damm, couldn't bring myself to give them a hard time One of them is even a PFA member - whatever next?

I commend it to the house
