At the moment I am registered but there is no one between here (Prestwick) and Bruntingthorpe who needs a lift. If you know of any ex-aircrew twixt here and there who might not be aware of the Project, please let them know and I might be able to give them a nice day out.

As usual, none from my neck of the woods. If it looks as if there will be a shortage, I could bimble over to Cambridge or Norwich - or even Big Gin Hill if it came to it.

What a wonderful thing to do, I'll register and depending upon aeroplane availability could do a round trip from either Booker or Cranfield.
Wondering out loud, given the passage of time, aircrew who flew operationally in Korea will now mostly be over 80, and who flew in the Falklands will in many cases now be over 60, plus he significant operational flying at Suez was all flown by people aged now over 75. Should Project Propeller be expanding it's remit slightly?
