I spend eleven months of the year in the UK and one in NZ. I'm hoping to improve that... ;-)

It funny how many silly things are kept away under lock and key, you met 'Barf' , the very nice chap you met in the back hanger , he points this out all the time I go snooping around Wigram and asking for information - many files still have that "RESTRICTED" stamp all over it making it for my eyes only - yet its 70 years old biggrin.gif

Tell ya one thing I would have loved to be on that Lanc flight around the world , I have heard off a visiting RAF Lancaster to New Zealand but never new the full story, Thanks for that Ade cool.gif
