Excellent programme.It was also on about 18+ months ago.

I found the bit about the charts hard to believe, yet nothing surprises me.

I loved the bit about the only available missing part of the refuelling probe, was being used as an ash tray !

Pity they did not add the story about the Vulcan that was nearly shot down by the Brasilian Air Force before it transmitted on 121.5 . Some believe that the Brasilians letting us land in Rio, led to the Tucano purchase?

A computer that worked with bits of bicycle chain ! - Classic.
