    Default CC at Duxford

    Anyone on here the owner of the yellow Carbon Cub at IWM Duxford? Saw it in the hangar today next to a Bristol Beaufighter under restoration.

    Yup! Day two of the show today. 9 am here, 4 am on the east coast of the US, headed to the aerodrome now. Came over just for the show. Might have to spring for a biplane ride today, Tiger Moth. What I really want is a ride in that Carbon Cub SS!

    The Vulcan did some fly-bys yesterday. Only one in the world.

    I believe that belongs to our new European distributor, directSky. Kamil Skorupski is the owner, be sure and say "hi".

    Ran into a mechanic yesterday who said it was just assembled (out of the shipping crate, not a kit) and made its first flight just a couple days ago. Never caught an owner or pilot. Plenty of other stuff to see! Chillin' in London for a couple days then home.

    Visited the Amercian Cemetery in Cambridge before we left this morning. Over 3000 airman and soldiers interred there. Amercian soil no less, just like the cemetery in Normandy. What a place.

    Hmmmm, not the same one. This one was all yellow. They said who owned it but I didn't catch the name, too busy drooling on a Hellcat.
