Talk by Eric 'Winkle' Brown Thurs 9th November

7.30 - 8pm start. Stowey Arms, Exminster, nr Exeter: http://www.allpubs.co.uk/pub/48096

All members of the Devon Strut are welcome. All you Southwestern flyers who aren't members of the Devon Strut, join and come along to hear the reminiscences of this most extraordinary character of British aviation, spanning back as far as the 1930s.

The Devon Strut is, ahem, the best of all the PFA struts, and very, very cheap to join: www.devonstrut.co.uk

Contact Mike King to join: http://www.devonstrut.co.uk/pages/contacts.htm

See you there!

I have no opinion about the Devon strut.

Winkle Brown on the other hand, I've heard speak several times, and a couple of times had the privilege of sitting next to at formal dinners where he was even more generous with his experience and views.

The man is an amazing living example of all that has ever been best in British aviation. Go to this talk, even if you have to postpone your wedding to go, trust me, he's worth it.
