Thanks Cees!!!

I got Flypast this morning and it totally stunned me! Strange how there was no mention of my efforts at this end, but that's life I suppose.

It looks as if Par Erixon is trying to get exactly the same thing done as me, we've just been working from opposite ends. I definately need to contact him, as he was the guy who organised the recovery of the tail unit in 1985. I've got the British end of things sorted with the MOD, it was only the last few bits in Sweden I needed to sort out.

Then it was just to secure funding. With a bit of luck the Flypast article may raise the profile of Elsie enough to get the necessary arrangements made to finally bring her home.

I'm going to post on the Flypast forum, and write to the Editorial team to see if I can make contact by post. If anybody can put me in contact with Par Erixon, or if he reads this, contact me at biggles2000_99@yahoo.com

Once again, many thanks Cees.
