People do all sorts for charity…some do wing walks or parachute jumps…I did the splits in the cockpit of a @rafredarrows hawk! One of the many little adventures under my belt for when I’m auctioned off for @RAFBF later this year. Thanks to @pilotbondy for looking after me!

Had an amazing week away with @Jamie_Pilot but now I’m on my way back to Lincolnshire via a slightly bumpier means of transit (all will be revealed!) so that I can attend the @RAFBF Dambusters ride next weekend at @PetwoodHotel

I was getting a little tired of the Coningsby weather so when I heard @Jamie_Pilot was going overseas in the A400M I decided to stow away in his bag…..clocking up those hours in my log book now!!! Here I am at the airport in Bangor, Maine ✈️

Huge thanks to @Jamie_Pilot for looking after me in the Lancaster yesterday! What an experience to add to my log book. When I’m auctioned for @RAFBF at the end of the season my book full of crew signatures along with all of these images will come with me to the winning bidder

Thanks to @JayWarden for teaching me some new skills on todays @RAFBBMF Dakota flight…here I am sat in the back helping work out some weight/balance calculations. There’s a lot more to this flying malarkey than just waving out of the back door it seems!
