Uh, not as I thought it … In the air, there was just me and you, and also no experienced aTC … Would like to know why no one else joined us …

Going back to happier times when I was involved in flight simulation at British Aerospace Weybridge.

As the factory (and most of the British Aero industry) was busy closing down, one of my team moved to the British Airways simulators at nearby Heathrow, where career prospects were much brighter. He invited some of us to see their facility one evening.

After doing a few touch and go circuits at New York in a 747, we were invited to fly underneath one or two bridges and them between the twin towers. This was in the early 1980´s, and we never dreamed of what was to come 20 years later.

Something from the same domain as from Alant: the POH of the Cessna T210N was published or approved the 11. september 1981 - exactly 20 years before the attack ! :shock:

I’m sorry that your event did not go as planned, as it was a great idea. It’s hard to find time for ATC and flying, even though I really do love it. Please do keep me posted about any events for which you would like some service.
My passengers receive hazard pay... but at least I have fun.

Cheers,
Margot
