I think I first became aware of the TCT/Stearman 'adventure' in the AH&N sub-forum early last year on the thread titled "The Lady who flew Africa".
Assuming that it was probably something to do with Lady Mary Heath, I was most interested.
Within the first page of that thread, my reaction went from interest, to slight amusement, then to bemusement.
My feelings now?
While I try to see the funny side of it, they really do range somewhere between outrage and disgust.
"GREAT" Britain, indeed.
The worst part about it?
While one can understand tacky entrepreneurs and the funny-handshake brigade being involved, the apparent active involvement of Royalty
in the promotion of this stunt is, to my mind and the values I grew up with, reprehensible.
