I've had a few uncomfortable passengers saying "are we nearly there yet?",
Ah, fond memories of G-BIGJ twenty-five or so years ago coming back from Oostend to Southend in a 30mph+ headwind. After about an hour, the wives in the back asked that exact same question. Eventually, we had almost full throttle on but still seemed to be going backwards in the rather underpowered craft. My flying colleague, a sailor, suggested we might start tacking...
Nice to see BIGJ still going strong in very different colours and I'm sure a new engine configuration.
