Small is beautiful.

ValMORNA,

You might have been a younger version of me ! Like you, I found PPRuNe mid-2011, and watched carefully from a safe distance for six months before timidly sticking my oar in Jan 2012. Don't wait too long - it's later than you think !

I've seen cogwheels before somewhere on a Window, but can't find one here now. Of course I can use Ctrl + "-" to downsize everything from the 150% I'm normally comfortable with, to 100%, and everything fits nicely, but the letters are so tiny then (and my eyes so old !) that it's not practicable.

My log is countersigned by S/Ldr A.M.Gill for April 1943. This would have been at Madhaigang (in Bengal); I know 84 Sqn were there at the time, and he was their CO. I suppose 110 were short of a CO, so he did the honours. Give him my regards (no names, no pack drill). I was a Sgt/Pilot on "A" Flight (F/O R.C.Topley Flt Commander) then.

Cheers, Danny.
