: Correct I have read FlyPast for about the same length Cees

: en recovered is cost. The Whitley idea is quite a new one
: but parts have been scattered on the hills of Scotland for
: many years-indeed a friend of mine recovered the Whitley
: parts which are now on display at the Midland Air Museum
: on loan from the RAFM. I hope something comes of it even i

: Lastly regards the Defiant I believe this was supposedly i

: heard of it which is strange considering the attention tha
