Rothmans 1971 season
Well after much prodding from old friends I am writing my autobiography amd have finished the element on my time with the team in 1971. Manx Kelly(1), Neil Williams(3) and Iain Weston(4) with Nick Daniels as a great commentator. Maintenance on our Stampes by Personal Plane Services at Booker. A fabulous experience but I lacked faith in Rothmans continuing the sponsorship. So, with wife, kids, mortgage and the Peterborough Aero Club to support, I regretfully declined Manx's invitation to continue after the season had ended. The salary was vastly superior to what I was getting as the CFI/Manager at Sibson and the fags were indeed a bonus; but common sense prevailed, unfortunately. Great memories after some 46 years. I am the only one left now unless Nick is still around in Canada. RIP my old mates.
