Took No1 grandson to the MMSI a couple of days ago. In the "Air and Space Hall" they have hung a small banner over the gift shop announcing that 2010 is the centenary of A.V. Roe, but apart from that there is nothing special AVRO related at all.

Very disappointing. :(

One Olympus 301 has twice the power of a complete F1 starting grid.
XM655 has four of them, all serviceable.

Another opportunity missed! ~x(

In memory of a very dear friend - Mike Pearson

Very fond memories of Robbie Gilvary - DTs 1st Vulcan Captain who taught DT all he knew.
