Not only were all of my Father's male relations in the RAF, but a cousin of his Mother was the Irish co-pilot in this plane. It is the family's main older claim to fame by (distant) blood! It was the first East West crossing of the Atlantic by aeroplane.


That's me standing in front of the wing.

Me too but my team was eliminated in the first round so I'm now going for Thomas' team. A team that I wouldn't really have a care for were it not for our friend Thomas.

Go Preds.
