First aeroplane in which I ever flew, the Anson (TX219 ISTR) aged 13. Biggest worry, I might not like it. Waiting one day at Royan ferry terminal another UK car stopped behind us and we got chatting. When he heard I was on my way to a RAFA meeting he asked if I had ever flown in an Avro aircraft. I said that I had, only once and it had been an Anson, and asked him why the specific question. "Oh," he said, my grandfather was A V Roe." It was actually the anniversary year of Roe's first flight.
