Message for the League of Gentlemen:

If you are not returning to the thread for a while, would you be kind enough to log off and put your green light off.

It's very confusing for those of us remaining on thread.

Ah So Mechta.

I knew it was dawn and you would be coming out of the sun...
WW2 stuff! We used to come from anywhere below with an overtake of quite a Mach number.

If you were at 55,00 feet and M0.88, we would be at 36,000 feet and M1.3- M1.6.

Did I tell you about my Vulcan intercept when he was at 60,000 feet.

Mate of mine got a U2 at about 68,000 feet.

Is your SC a Spartan?

Did I just see you change your mind?

Second shot is correct - you have control mate.

Hi LM, Yes, I realised at the last the last minute that the Dream Classic is the single seat version, whilst the Dream Fantasy has the cranked 'A' frame and is the two seater.

Next challenge will be up in a few minutes.
