Bit of a chunky baby, that one. -- Moving things in still pictures You are correct Sir! :-) My first flight was as a wide eyed kid in a Convair 440. N. Ah, the joys of youth, eh? You bet. I was only 4 or so at the time and this was my first flight so it was quite a treat. I think everyone remembers their first flight best because it is the first. Care to share your first flight experience and what you remember? Nick My first flight was as a eight or nine year old lad. It was in an Auster from the beach at Cleethorpes. I was impressed to see the horizon appear to tilt as the plane banked and to see Grimsby docks as we flew over the Humber estuary. Five bob well spent, in my opinion.
