sixtiesrelic, yes all the time as a kid when we lived in Huskisson in 1948!!!
Sorry, bit of a drift.
But I do remember a very long BEA flight in a Dakota from Malta to Northolt when aged 9. I remember on a visit to the cockpit, the pilot stuck his hand out of the window, not quite sure what he was demonstrating but it stuck in my memory!
