Dang! Short of cash  :cry
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Think we could have a whip-round.

I'll contribute the 30 kilos of 1 and 2 pound coins I seem to collect every time I'm over there.
