Hi Guernsey,sorry for the long silence but life has been difficult of late with health problems.
I chose you as a friend because prior to WW2 I lived in and off in Jersey and Northern Italy and France,with occasional visits to the UK. WW2 we lived in the Uk and in 1949 I joined the RAF, I was then living in Jersey once again. Loved the Island but wanted to fly, hence my decision to enter under the Direct Entry Aircrew scheme. Trained as Air Sig but later remustered to Nav. After picking up a damaged spine was discharged ,completed my Civil Eng degree and gained my PPL. Offered work in Aus and arrived here in 1974. Wife passed away 2009 now still feeling very lonely having been married for 57 years. Had thoughts about flying again wonder if that is wise after heart surgery in 2006.Needs some thought as last flight 16 years ago finished with a landing whilst experiencing a heart attack.No damage to a/c or passenger but damage to ego was substantial . Happy New Year. William
