I wasn't taking down numbers! Honest!!
Just watching the antics of the sky gods of the jet age in their aerial steeds...and wondering whether one day I might perhaps become one of them.

Living there was like having a non-stop air display in those days! Although there was an excellent air show in later days - eveything from a Bleriot IX to a VULCAN B1 as well as the superb Black Arrows.
