More buttons than an Apache???

Didn’t know whether to go flying today after yesterday’s drama … but then I now know that Bradley can save the day :-) We managed to get a couple of flights in before I was collected by Matt for my commercial flights :-) Wonder if I’ll see Uncle Richard from RyanAir …. Well Matt was really nice & made sure he looked after me well – but he did warn me that we had an early start tomorrow – the flight is scheduled for 07:15 take-off … ooh better make sure I get an early night then! Matt is a regular at Earls Colne & had seen my poster but didn’t know what I was up to … so I filled him in on what I was doing & we also had a look at my website. Cor he was envious of all I’d flown in … Spitfires, Mustang, Hurricane, Lancaster, B17 etc !! :-) He told me tomorrow I’d be able to sample all the gadgets & buttons on a 737-800 … now does it have more buttons than an Apache!!??!! :-)
