Douglas Bader was one of my childhood heroes, up there with Lindbergh, the Apollo astronauts, Jimmy Doolittle and anybody who set records at Bonneville.
My reading material when I was in 3rd grade or so was aviation history, sports car and hot rod books and modelling books. Think that explains a lot..,oh, quite a bit of sci-fi too.

Good old Douglas Bader.
One of my heroes 👍👍👍
Pity there aren’t a few more like him today.
Also one of his best quotes was “Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men”
As well as “The successful pilots succeeded because they did not open fire until they were close to the target”
Plus many others.
Sorry folks,gone off the thread here.
Regards Bill

There does appear to be an issue... could be my fault (well, kind of is!), as I spotted an error with sending out new trending topics to users... So it's the new topics doing it! I do believe it's now fixed, but email issues seem to take a day or so to catch up.
I'll keep an eye on it 👍

Hmm!
There's a clog up in the system somewhere!
Trending Topics and Notifications (both Onsite and in Emails) are lagging hours, and several posts, behind what is actually appearing in the threads.
Current examples:-
American Beauty, Mojo and Assurance Class tug ???

Yes and no, my wife and I have been getting the gardens ready for winter ❄️, plus enjoying this last bit of “warm” fall weather either biking or on the golf course. Model boats can wait till we really get cold n snowed under.
Yesterday’s golf…we had snow flurries at one point and my score showed it.
Sunday afternoon bike riding.
Tuesday, bought a used bike with XL frame for my 6’4” height. Then we took a short ride on the water front trail between Ajax and Pickering nuclear station on the shore of Lake Ontario.
Tomorrow is golf in the afternoon. 🤗
