Oh alright. =C2=A32750, half an hour in the cockpit and about 20 minutes
flying time. They charge =C2=A360 to sit in the bloody thing. All
depends if I can get my hands on the controls. If i can, I don`t care
what it cost. If not I shall be very very cross. Incidentally I think I
paid =C2=A31750 for an hour in the Mustang.Took her out from the
flightline to the end of the runway.Pilot did the take off,climbed away
steeply,I could see the numbers in the rear view mirror, and as she fell
off the top of the climb he said `Shes all yours`. he talked me through
what was what and we climbed to about 10,000ft and he just left me to
chase Germans around the clouds. Did some rolls,loops,figure of
eights,wingovers. Dived down to around 500ft and did a strafing run
across Florida. We had to CLIMB to enter the pattern.Talked me round
the circuit and I did a touch and go (He did the GO part) then talked me
round again until we were into the flare and then he put it down and I
taxied back to the line. Not bad I suppose when you think that all I had
flown were gliders and ultralights plus a couple of joyrides in a T6.

OK Pat, you have teased us- now just how much does it cost?????? No need
to be embarrassed about it, we all probably would if we could.

Hi Russ,
Legs for sale. Does that mean you are fully airborne again and ready
to go. Good luck.
I have taken the plunge and hocked the family jewels and booked myself
a flight in a 2 seat Spitfire. I thought that my Mustang flight at
Kissimmee many years ago was the most expensive flight I would ever have
but this is costing about a third more for half the flying time. With
the P51 at least I knew that I was going to do most of the flying. This
time it definitely says `you will not be allowed to touch the controls`.
I am hoping that the wording is to placate the Board of Trade which
licenses the flight and will not be enforced by the pilot once the
wheels are up. The flight will be from Biggin Hill which you will
probably know was right in the middle of the Battle of Britain so very
nostalgic. Just to keep it real a Spitfire lost power on take off and
crash landed while taking off at Biggin a few days ago. The pilot
sustained a shoulder injury but not serious. I shall pay attention to
the safety briefing. I remember watching a Hurricane roll off the end of
the runway at Chivenor many moons ago because the pilot had put the
pitch lever in the wrong notch. It happens.
These Spit flights are obviously popular.Even at this enormous price i
can`t get a booking until October
Cheers
Pat

WHOOPS! It doesn`t matter I suppose.I just hit reply on Russ`s post. I hope
to be a bit more than a sandbag as you can see. I think I would probably
trade the flight for the chance to fly alongside you in a Kolb from Hauk
Holler to Monument Valley though.
Cheers Pat

Thanks Boyd, is there any way I could get a reprint of your plans or copy them
and send them back to you. I would make it worth your while.
I talked with the factory and they say they don't have any plans for the 2004 mk3x.

Boyd- If you are going to copy your plans, make two copies and send on to the
factory for their records. I am sure they will appreciate it.

The flight from hauck's holler to monument valley is priceless!
However, pleased that you would want to fly with me for that long. That one takes
about 2.5 days. Not necessarily Spitfire or Mustang speeds, but get to log
more flight time. ;-)
