there's a two seater "primary" glider called a G2, built in Denmark in the 1940's, which turns up at all the international vintage glider rallies. I had a winch launch in (on) it in Germany last year - best laugh I've had with my clothes on in years - got some excellent video footage of of my feet and 1500 feet of air, straight down, which causes some pilots to cringe.
It cost me the price of a winch launch (£3). So that dream can come true, in the right place at the right time! I can email you a photo if you like

Let's see;
DHC.2 Beaver (Delicious)
Sopwith Camel or Pup,
Avro 504,
Any of the shuttleworth birds,
A trip in a Tornado would be nice, but I prefer"proper flying"
Hope this gives an insight as to the desires of a trainee bush-pilot!

Lowtimer: with you on the Tempest. Actually, would just like to see one flying again.
I'd love to have a go in an Auster at the moment. I really like the look of them and would like to confirm my good opinion.

As someone born in 69 would have t be Concorde - yes I know I dont stand a chance. Shame all Vulcans are grounded too as I could fly in one in memory of an engineer I knew who worked on them. Think for now I will stick to the PA28 and 38's
