Re: Bucket List
Hi everyone
Well I reached the good old age of 50 this year and my wife gave me some money for this special day, which I had been saving for something special.
Well I went to Duxford Airshow last Saturday and they had Tiger Moth flights on offer with Duxford Classic Wings, so off I went on a 20 minute flight
. We got airborne and turned right and climbed to 1000 ft and to my surprise the pilot asked me if I would like to take the controls... 
what a bonus, I took control and performed a 360 to the left and another on to the right, I then brought her down from 1000 ft to 800 ft and flew the beautiful aircraft back to Duxford, as we reached the airfield the pilot took control and landed her beautifully on the grass.
The aircraft I flew on was R4922, I had a great time, a day I will always remember, you wear the classic leather flying jacket, leather helmet and goggles and you sit in the front seat. If any of you guys are thinkg of doing a Tiger Moth flight then I highly reccomend Duxford Classics Wings... Go on, give it a go, you will love it
Well i can now cross this off my bucket list... but what can I replace it with
