I know this is going to stretch the memories of even the more “senio” members of this forum but thought I would ask this question all the same.
Have just shown a gentleman and his family what is believed to be the site where his brother died in 1945 when his Meteor of 504 Sqn crashed. Another pilot who was flying with him said
We were practising diving with open airbrakes.
The question was asked what is the significance of the open airbrakes comment?
