Wings

A mate invited me to RIAT last weekend, I saw an old friend I hadn't seen in about 15 years.



It was the first aircraft I ever did aerobatics in and the first time I flew a light aircraft. It went out of  service the following year to be replaced by bulldog (also a lot of fun to fly). Prince Philip learnt to fly in one back in 1952 so it did pretty well for itself. I'll always remember AEF days in the chippy.

Couldn't see any of the stealth aircraft. They must be pretty clever.
