Well, Mr. Wallington-Binn did bring me some Can. Players to a Beltring, sensibly in 25s but seems everything there has namby-pamby mufflers on them which I was obliged to wrench off in order to make them into sensible straight-thrus.

Usually I'm obliged to make DIY combustible nails using some of McSpools excellent Dutch smoking material occasionally interspersed with long US straight-thrus as and when I can blag some off a visiting Septic to do mule duty for me.

Now I only have the virtual notion how to fly a WWII aircraft, best I can claim is dual in things like a Robinson Redwing, Chipmunks, Moths and the like. I have a gliding cert. from 1962 but anyone letting me loose in any flying machine now would have to be nearly barking; we'll call them Plaistow as that's two stops short of Barking on the Underground.

I'm sure we have some much more erudite flyers around here somewhere.
