Wow, I thought I might become the oldest crosser - looks as if there's been a
continuous procession all century - ah well there still has to be a first
Europa.

Bit early for Osh but no doubt there are other targets ?

I was thinking the same thing - indeed last flight !
I even get cold in bed these days so liferaft would probably be pointless.
Anyway I wouldn't be thinking about it if I thought the Rotax knew what was
below. I'm not sure I want to know how many haven't made it, but don't
remember any headlines. Maybe there are so many in that category it isn't
news any more (:-))

promises, promises
<<Carry ......three chocolate bars>>
Chocaholics like me need that every hour - must try Cadburys for sponsorship.
<<Europa Builder #A064>> Come on Fergus, get a move on and meet me half way.
Your advice really appreciated - the direct email list just doubled. Uk

a prize ?
