Definition of an imposter . . .. . . a male poster of falsities

I just can't help it. Every time somebody says thank you for support, of one kind or another
.. . what springs to mind is either Spike Milligan or Ronnie Barker , Ronnie as an archaeologist
who is examining what he thinks is an ancient Egyptian jock-strap .. (at 3.10 on the vid)



There is another youtube taken in England of a Rapide (a dark green one) coming in for a landing.
By studying the inside and outside footage it does help someone about to come to grips with
the type a pretty good idea of timing and what to expect just before and at touchdown. And as an aid
to avoid over-control. It helped me anyway, but I do have to say, after about thirty landings in the last year,
unless the wind is getting up, the Rapide is a pussycat in which to caress the turf.
