But don't forget that thousands and thousands of the Great British Public have looked up in awe at this wondrous piece of engineering, according to Dr.P.
Truth probably is, that if they bothered to look up at all, then they wouldn't have a clue what they were seeing. Even my wife, who works at Duxford on Show Days, remarked, after it's two passes a year or so ago, commented 'is that it, then!! Is that what all the fuss has been about, it wasn't worth it.'
I like the aircraft too, but it has been overhyped, oversold, and hopelessly undermanaged.
