A bit of thread drift here but as so many seem to remember the "old" days does anyone remember John Kilburn? Flew with the White Rose Group at Sherburn 1966-7. My father wondered if he was still around as he lost touch in the 70s.
Have already posted in another forum but just thought it was worth a try.

Yes she did live in Harrogate, but as i say, she sold up and went east, i think she still flies out of Northcoates, i will hopefully see her in the spring when i fly there.

I speak to John on a regular basis. He is in good shape and flies on a NPPL at the moment. He had a stroke in 2006 and lost his class one and his commercial licence so had to stand down from instructing. He is still good company and we have many an interesting chat about the good old days at sherburn when he was CFI. I will tell him you have been asking about him. Regards Birdman
