Yes I know Nick

Incidentally I was introduced to Flying Review back in 1967 (I was 16 years old)

There were some specialist shops in Gothenburg at the time, but it was not every month
they sold anything British.

When I was 17 I had made some financial progress and managed a subscription.

I owe Bill Green a lot. FR opened up a new world and with later visits to the Aviation Bookshop
I became an addict.
Lovely memories.....:D

Cheers
Stig
