Rebuilt after the Hawk accident, the new Cranwell Tower embodied some radical departures from traditional RAF architectural style.

Chap pushing: 'So, did you make this from a kit?'

Guy Pulling: 'Actually it came as part of a series of magazines. Every month I would get a nice 16 page colour magazine that would detail the history of flight and a piece of the aircraft stuck to the front with sellotape. You get a free binder with issue 2. I started collecting the magazines when I was 3 and it has cost me £750,000 so far.

Chap pushing: 'By the looks of it, you must have missed several chapters, it's a bit small for a real aeroplane don't you think?'

Guy Pulling, hanging head in shame: ' Yes.....my life has been a complete waste of mine, and everybody elses time'.
