Thanks, Buster the Bear for the video of my last ever landing in a commercial airliner (1st one into Lasham G-TOYK)

A very sad day to cap off 10 years with a very fine little airline. I'll miss it and my colleagues a lot, but this thread will provide some great memories.

Thanks all for the pics, vids and kind words about WW, a brand which was brought down by external pressures and manipulations, and not by its business model, which could have worked.

It's quite fitting that my flight into retirement was on the same day that the MOD announced the selling for scrap of my namesake HMS Ark Royal (upon which I was the second person ever to land an aircraft, a Wessex 5 back in 1984!)

Cheers all!
