We were living in Jersey CI and I fancied getting my private pilots licence . So as a surprise birthday present, the wife got me a trial flight. The day included 2 passengers as well, so wife and friend came along. I handed over camera with instructions of point and shoot and the camera will do the graft. Off we flew, straight over the Channel and invaded France. Back over the Channel Isles, buzzed Guernsey and home for Tea and Medals! When I asked John how many frames did he take, 'about 50 or 60' came the reply. Not bad out of a roll of 36 I thought. Alas, there was no film loaded to record the antics of a Hells Angel in charge of a light Aircraft!
Cheers
Diz

Ha! But just think of all the fun and frollics you would have missed if you hadn't
