Great stuff. The 'Albert Ross' is another 'warbird' type I always think would make a very usable tourer and display aircraft, if perhaps a little costly to run.
Love the description of the 'tourists wearing only a parachutist'! I did a couple of free-fall jumps from a 'Porter', and was always fascinated how the darned thing dived almost vertically, after we'd exited, in order to get down quickly and earn more from another load of parachutists. It was always on the ground before us, sometimes even almost before we'd popped our canopies!
