Ah, quite some example! So your flight had one tech malfunction, and that somehow grades the airline? You are right, let's get back to the lovely VC10 and Roz and BOAC.....without you if you don't mind! You are indeed a busy-body to want to park your opinion in here! If you want to sound off about BOAC, I don't think this is the appropriate place! You have nothing to do with BOAC, you didn't know Roz, and you hardly flew on the VC10- why exactly are you here? Just to pour cold water on us old codgers' reminisces? Be gone, Spoilsport! For someone with just 11 posts, you have earned yourself an 'ignore' already- and I suspect half a dozen others too!
