jabird,
Twotters are not fun if one is trying to hold a conversation nor have a sleep nor when transitting thru cloud nor when an engine disintigrates and the Captain makes mention of something like "Mayday" before doing a dirty dive in to RAF Odiham
But it was quite fun, in the old days, riding around in the RHS's of Brymon Twotters, I recall one summer's afternoon, still air conditions, some 12 fare paying pax down the back, the Captain needed to bounce us to a condition of airborne off the old ISC grass runway that had a hump in the middle, then we did a low level flyby past my uncle & aunt's cream teas cafe on the Helford river, and basically did a tour of the beaches all the way to PLH where the Captain disregarded the tarmac strip in favour of the grass'.
The fare paying passengers loved it
And then there was an incident involving the PLH firemen, the 'steam rollering' of the PLH tarmac and the tail of a, dry leased to Brymon, Loganair Twotter ... Bill Bryce was on crutches after surgery at the time, the gear stick of the roller came off in the fireman's hand, he jumped for his life, as the steam roller chimney went clean through the underside of the Twotter tail, Bill Bryce went so ballistic he jumped up, forgetting he was meant to be on crutches, and promptly fell ass over tit.
And we got paid for this entertainment.
