Well done Neil, nice to make a bit of history, is this the second model to fly the Chanel, I remember one going from the UK to France a few years back, great picture as well

Hi Muscat,

That was in 1990 - a Hurricane was used - its still on display at the Spitfire & Hurricane Museum, Manston. Unfortunately the picture was taken yesterday at the LMA show at Rougham. The weather was bloody 'orrible! There would've been no way of getting a good picture.

TTFN,
Neil

... and I was expecting a young, gorgeous lady on a boat.

A cracking photo Neil, despite the weather.

It is daft I live only about 12 miles from Manston and I have never been into the Museum, I must get my backside in there as I believe they have a nice cafe as well. If you don't tell anyon about the picture being from an LMA event I won't

Hi Muscat,

I wish I'd known you lived so close I would've let you know. The museum is free & they have a super cafe - coffee is bloody good.
