Some of you may know of my personal hero Alex Henshaw (http://www.angelfire.com/sd2/spitfirefactory/man.htm), flying God and Spitfire test pilot, but he was also famed for a rather nifty trick in a Lanc, so tonight Matthew I'm going to fly....

And after a perfect double barrel-roll a perfect 3 pointer to finish 6.0 from all the judges ;D

Two points.

1/ I would be very sceptical of that aircrafts FD's if you managed to pull that off without flaps as it seems you did.

2/ Henshaw did that stunt with two engines switched off. ;D

Bugger, I forgot the engines. Okay I'll get on it Woodie ;)
Oh and Dave its beer this evening ;D But I might switch to wine shortly... I'm not sure, but as I had a call a few mins ago saying no lessons (due to heavy snow), I think I can get happily err happy ;D ;D ;D
