The front loading plane is quite something, it's strange to think that people flew to across the Channel rather than taking a boat. And a Europe where you had to stop at borders - changed days indeed. His father's bike turning up at the end was the icing on the cake!

What a great site. Inspires me to get going on my Triumph projects. Amazing that his father's old bike showed up, and is still being ridden. Wonder if the old VW is still around? Wild front loading airplane they flew over on. Nice find there, Norman.Hairy Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07561143328956868685noreply@blogger.com
