What a great thread!!, I was a young boy at White Waltham, Fairoaks, and Blackbusche during the mid 70's, my Dad is Robbie Diver, and i have one of the fabric reg panels from G-BADZ framed on my wall, have been digging for more Rothmans paraphenalia for years. My dad Ferried out the HE-111 before the one that Neil was flying for his last trip, Met Neil a couple of times, he was a boyhood hero of mine, i have read "aerobatics" several times, have owned 2 Pitts S1's and hope to get a Stampe and travel back in time for a more nostalgic experience.
Thank you for all who contribute to this thread, i see a common theme, whether it be sons/daughters of Team members or child "wannabees" that will never forget their brush with these people and planes.
Regards
Simon
