boetie Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Certainly a shiny bird John. My old man did his National Service in Malta, probably around '52. He always said it was a highlight of his life. Cheers Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Graeme Malta was the halfway stop on the way to Cyprus - to refuel - and empty the bladders of 35 soldiers I'll complete the retro flight at the weekend - with a boring overwater flight via Crete have you booked your balcony for the Air Show ??

boetie Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Unfortunately not. That is the weekend my wife and daughters decided to return from their UK trip My son and his girlfriend on the other hand have secured a balcony room in the thick of it facing the show. He might find he has a visitor or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
