From 2008 until 2013 Curtis-Taylor was flying as a display pilot at the Shuttleworth Collection in Bedfordshire, England,[7] often flying a Ryan PT-22 military trainer.
(From TCT's Wiki page)
This one puzzles me. I thought the only pilots used by the Shuttleworth Collection were ex ETPS or very similar. Although the paragraph says "at" rather than "with" it very much implies (to me, at least) that her relationship with the SC was an internal one rather than as an invited guest, and the rather curious use of the Past Imperfect tense instead of the more conventional Past tense serves to amplify the suggestion that this was an internal and long-running, established situation.
Did she actually fly
for the SC as implied, or did she in reality fly
at Old Warden displays which I think is a very important distinction.
Perhaps my interpretation of this is incorrect in which case I'll delete this post. Or is this yet another of her
PR cabal's oh just not quite an untruth that this whole farrago seems to revolve around?
