Paul Smiddy

I have a talk about MC in Sussex last night – some very good questions. Decided to fly home rather early – even before some controlled airspace in SE England became controlled. It was most relaxing! It was at that hour that some hardy souls of 161 Squadron were returning to Tangmere after overlong sorties…

Took my 21st C aircraft yesterday to meet some of its earlier (and noisier) siblings. The sound of four Merlins, and later six, is incomparable.
