There are many examples and it’s certainly the way forward for combat aircraft

Gamers etcetera are apparently ideal pilots for unpersonned aircraft. We had several such aircraft of varying sizes being developed when I was gainfully employed, and their replacements area already being designed now.
Good point about the gamers Fruitcake, but I doubt warriors of hand to hand combat will be required in any future wars. I would think the resourcefulness and stealth of the SAS fighting behind enemy lines would be of a more tactical benefit....

Re: Tonka farewell flypast

I made a comment on Facebook about the fly past and it was picked up by The BBC...they asked if I wanted to comment live on air I should have referred them to you lot as I know nothing about planes so I declined....the event did make me cry though...very emotional.

Best to avoid too much exposure on the BBC Summer, next thing you know you'll be the 'pin up' on the front page of the Daily Fail...

On second thoughts.......It might make me start buying a paper again...
