Wearing it with pride…
It’s great at Coningsby coz there’s a museum here all about BMF – so I went & had a look. We owe so much to ‘The Few’ who flew in the Battle of Britain – it must have been horrendous … not knowing if you’d come back again … seeing all you r friends disappear. I feel quiet humbled now about flying with these guys who do so much to keep their memory alive. Andrea & Dale bought me a BBMF badge – I shall now wear it with pride. I’m looking forward to my flight in both the Hurricane & the Spitfire even more now after my museum visit – it will make the flight’s mean so much more. I now know that they are 4 aircraft that make up the Flight – the Lancaster (which I’ve been on!), the Hurricane & the Spitfire – the Battle of Britain Fighters & also the Dakota. Well it’s one down & 3 more to go … think I better go & find these pilots & book my slots to have a go ….
