Hi guys.....I am late to the show...sorry....been working on my Camel project....
Yep, I was really looking forward to going to the Tour after Gary's time last year. It did not disappoint!
Anyhoo, as Gary said we went on seperate carriers. I fly on BA alot so went with them and got rather, well, jolly in the Exec Lounge. We were also late off due to the previous pilot jumping on the brakes lol!
Was worried when got to Boston as no sign of Gaz....so made way to hire car pace and picked up the 'box'. Actually Fugly but a good car. We drove to Hyannis - pretty place. We stayed in an 'interesting' motel but survived the night without a visit form Norman Bates! We made our way to Hyannis Airport and dropped off the car. The first day was cool with us meeting the team, Gary reacquainting himself. Worked the Px, loaded stuff into the B17 and cleaned up the oil off the cowls. Seeing Betty Jane shining was wonderful, she had just been polished - what an awesome and beautiful bird she is. All too soon, we were packed up and off to Worcester. I flew with Gary in the B24.....I last flew in her in AZ last year. The coast of Cape Cod amd MA was beautiful.
