As mentioned on the G-VFWE thread I was hoping to drop the pilot of a Piper Cub a thank you note - well photos arrived back this morning and the reg is:
BTUM
can anyone put me in electronic contact with the chap who took it to Kemble last month?
TIA
Stik
Have a look here (http://www.caa.co.uk/srg/aircraft_register/ginfo/search.asp)
type in the reg and get the guys details. Dablle with that snail mail stuff!
Given the address it is prob based at Blackbush.
Nice cub! Time was, Warped Factor flew it. Regularly seen at the PFA rally and the like.

Is Warped Factor the scottish chap I think he is then??

tKF - if you're thinking of the friendly Scotsman I am, then yes. Flies a Chippy these days, and is probably reading this.
Hiya WF!
Warped factor(Scottish bloke) was our sponsor for the West Drayton/Heathrow visit. A gem of a bloke. I am sure if he can help you in anyway he can then he will. Smashing feller he is.

No he's not. I've had him working today (and tomorrow) at Old Warden! :D

You, sir, are a slave driver (not that I'm complaining ;) )
Did he fly in by Chippie?
Yes, BRL, you're right.

Blimey, seems I've got a fan club :O
Very nice pic of my old mount "Bottom" here (http://www.airliners.net/open.file/231621/L/).

WB,
I have a number for AS, will just check it is still up to date (and see if he's on e-mail) before forwarding it to stik.
And yes re the Chipmunks.
Cheers,
WF.

"Bottom" is definitely based at Waltham. I know one of the pilots, but not very well - although if you don't have any luck any other way, send me a PM and I'll try to find out who was flying it on the day in question and pass a message on for you.
