    We met the parties involved at field today Gary, posts on FB pages and item on Calendar tonight.

    Thanks John.
    I've had a read and it looks reassuring but the planned site is obviously nearby for the meeting to be set up in the first place.
    Fingers crossed and hopefully the flying site and the AirLander site will be able to co-exist well into the future.
    On a positive note, I suppose this and the Airport re-opening are both good things for Doncaster and Doncastrians.

    I never understood the logic of having one wheel at the front and two at the back! It was always going to liable to tipping over while travelling forward. The Morgan design (two at the front and one at the rear) made much more sense, and whilst they too were not regarded as particularly safe or stable, that was more to do with the ludicrous power-to-weight ratio than the layout! 🤣

    I think that Freddy Flintoff might disagree with you here. It was one of these Morgan 3 wheelers that caused his life changing injuries.

    Those who can do £/s/d, hundred weights/stones, yards/chains and nautical miles can count in many ways mostly without the help of Phobile Mone.

    Some of us still have slide rules and log-tables in the hangar for when the power goes down (and maps in the car)

    I just wish that the folks in the post office could count still, they often get it wrong even with a calculator.

    Happy and prosperous NY to one and all 🙂

     

     

    Especially if they use the Horizon calculator.....
