I flew on the Sandringham back in the 70's when Charles Blair brought it over to the UK. The aircraft did pleasure flights around the Isle of Wight taking off from and landing back on the Solent.It was a fantastic experience, during the flight we were allowed up on the flight deck which if I remember correctly was huge.While up there Maureen O'Hara was there selling tee shirts, I bought a nice Antilles Airboats tee shirt which I proudly wore for several years until it started to fall apart.

P.S. After his death in a crash didn't it come to light that he had been fiddling the maintenance records of his aircraft for years?.
