| Subject: | UK Fly Out Stowe Maries 12 August |
The Fly Out to Stowe Maries, with its excellent WW1 Flying Museum is on
hold for the moment as they have an appeal pending against restriction
in their movements which would stop us if it fails. They are due to hear
early next week and are optimistic! I shall update this list as soon as
I hear from them.
Regards, David Joyce GXSDJ

I have successfully used a 14 mm crowfoot and 14 mm half ring spanner
( wrench). specifically the half ring spanner is a ring spanner with a slot
cut into it to allow fitment over the pipe, It's a bit tight but works for
