It sure is an impressive bird, especially close-up, even if it does look now, as it did then, antiquated.
I had the dubious honour of towing the RN Historic Flight aircraft, with my Land Rover, back in the mid 1990's. The crew, walking alongside on the grass, were concerned that I might pull the tail wheel off, so kept admonishing me, in a friendly manner, to go slowly. Already in low box, just tickling the throttle, I was more concerned that the weight of the 'Stringabg' would pull the rear cross-member off the 'Rover !
I wish I could find a photo of that event, as there were many cameras clicking away at the time!
