Yes, Richard, a bit of a glutton for punishment - flew a 1927 Avro Avian UK-Australia in 98 as well.

We went to Normandy 45th (I bought a GMC workshop body and resold it afterwards). Had such a great time thought it was due for a repeat.

Bedford QL eh! I find the English trucks pretty interesting because they all are so unbelievably ugly they have a unique character. That plus measuring your speed with a calendar makes them short trip options for me. The pure 100% English trucks also have Lucas electrics which makes them suitable only for a true masochist.

I have owned several CMP "Blitz" types and love them in the bush but the cook nearly broke her neck when she was catapaulted into the roof on a big bump on the beach at Fraser Island and has refused to play unless the toys are improved hence the GMC's and Dodge Weapon Carriers. I also have had a jeep in the collection since I was 16.
