ACW418,

I will second that, I was launched by aero tow in an Air Cadets ASK21 circa 1985, whilst detached to Syerston from Waddington, the AEW Nimrod didn't need me. I was "Air testing" the ASK21 after servicing it, it took me a couple of hours to wrestle it back to the ground

Coff,

I wish I had kept a record of the serial number of the aircraft we repaired at Woodvale all those years ago. As I said, I believe I read the accident report as an "I learned about flying from that" in Air clues a couple of years later. No worries. Hope you like chickenlovers baby !!!!
