Duxford airshow sep 2012
« on: August 25, 2012, 01:50:18 AM »
I have been at Duxford some odd 3 times in my life, and it was always a blast. This year I have the honour of being there, and was just wondering if some fellow AH'ers were checking in.
I'll be stayng in London one night, probably near Piccadilly, - and then in Cambridge over the show.
So....if anyone is near, or there, how about meeting over a pint?
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)
