And a pleasure meeting you too, Paddy. Duxford Airshow is such a great place to meet, I think.
And a pint or two at The Eagle in Cambridge afterwards.
Hope to meet some of the Australian loungers (Windsock, Smithy...among others) next year in march/april, when my wife and I plan to go there.
Fathers day came and went over here (june 5th) - and all though I have two sons, non of them remembered it. Neither did I. Couldn't care less.
I know they love me - or I think they do. Don't need any special day for that. And since we do not even use Happy Fathers Day as a greeting either over...
No iPhone - or anything else starting with an "i" from Appel.
Nothing beginning with "sweat" either...
No tattoos.
No piercings.
No myspace or Twitter.
Nothing with digital numbers either.
No computergames.
No flipflops, hoodies, goldchains or other "street" items.
No Swingerclub...

(I know what we big-boned fellas go through. Trust me.
When I finally got an original Irvin on ebay - should be in my size - I had it for about half an...
I am also "A Big Guy" and when I started looking for a Irvin jacket, I realized a couple of things. Primarily: I could not fin an original in my size. People - especially fighter pilots - back then, just did not have the same proportions. (6'5 and 52" chest)
I looked at Eastman because everybody...
There has been a long debate on this subject here. It seems like it took ages for jackets to arrive in US after being ordered through Aero USA - and the communication wasn't great either. It might have changed - just mention it.
Some years ago, my wife and I was sitting on a fairly wellknown gourmet restaurant in Sienna, Italy.
At the next table were an american couple and Sting!!! and his wife.
My wife found it pretty interesting untill....she discovered Sting wore the kind of sandals that has a piece of...
Regarding age and their ability to buy weapons, uniforms and "halftracks":
During WWII they did not buy it either. The government did. (Government = Taxes)
Everybody interested in re-creating/staging WWII - and being of a certain age, where they do have the fonds to buy all this stuff - should...
