Dave Roome and the chaps at Deltajets made my father a very happy teddy today....a sortie in his favourite little plane, the Gnat.
35 minutes throwing it around the Malverns before returning to Kemble for a couple of "circuits" left him grinning like a Cheshire cat.
To top it all off, Deltajets are located in the very same hanger Dad flew his last Gnat from 26 years ago with the Arrows.
It brought back some wonderful memories to us all, a proud wife and very proud son. All in all, a bloody good day !
Any other ex-Gnat mates might want to contact Kemble as I believe they're having a get-together in February. :)
