I drove my Aero to Sywell Aerodrome yesterday. I was due to fly in a Spitfire (part of my 50th Birthday present). The weather was perfect so third time lucky. The first flight was cancelled due to bad weather and the second as the plane undercarriage failed on landing and so had to be repaired!!

Perfect weather, great drive, fantastic flight (I got to fly it a short while). As the Spitfire bumped across the grass heading for the run way to take off the pilot said to me "I hope you don't mind the bumpy ride"......I replied "I drive a Morgan.....I'm used to it!!".

I've thought to myself sometimes driving a Morgan might be a bit like flying a Spitfire.......the Spitfire was far smoother and easier to fly than the Morgan is to drive :-) (admittedly I only controlled the joy stick!).

Two British icons in one day......and great bank holiday weather.....a sublime day :-)

Good things come to those who wait but they've usually been left by those who got there first!
