    Jersey is a good guy. We get plenty of great stories from him when he's at Parakai. Apparently, he's going go let my husband have a go in the wild thing...should be interesting!

    Yes Pink, the deal's on.
    I look forward to taking Simon for a flight, now that I got the "stirring the pudding" & "tail dragger pedal shuffle" sorted out again.
    Will drop in soonish for an afternoon!
    In the meantime, all the best ... & keep that grass-runway tidy! ;-)
