    I was going to go to Blackbushe with Cabair for the DA42 but they went bust earlier this year. Such a shame as I got my twin rating with them in Denham.

    Buzzing sheep must have been a blast in the Ikarus C42 - just don't get too high and close with the sun!

    Well, I'll post some vids to you but they will be a shadow of what you've experienced!

    Some older types;

    DH Dove
    DH Devon
    Vickers Varsity
    HS748

    And taxied a DC3 but didn't get stick time. Never did get to fly a JP.

    PS Spent a few years at Farn in the good old days hence some of the types.

    EDIT: flying is better than anything.

    Hope you get over your eye probs - you know and I know that flying is better than ladies and gentlemen!

    re: jets are you talking Jet Provost? Would love to fly a jet after seeing the displays over Farn the last week!

    Once I get trained on one, will promise you Clippy to post a few pics. It'll beat the Seneca any day!

    If I can get the format right, will PM you some Seminole twin vids I did in Oz.
