I flew around 60 sorties in 573 as captain.
This from my logbook:
6Jun75 - Self/Hobbs - St Athan to Valley - Engine Seized - Forced Landing VY
Pete Hobbs was our SENGO, and I was giving him a lift back to Valley from some meeting or other. Unfortunately, XL 573's donk quit at 2000ft about 5 miles from the airfield, but fortunately fairly well placed for low key.
So, as her continued existence is in large part due to me (!), can I claim an early trip in 573? At a price of course
