Paul, for the avoidance of any doubt (as the lawyers say), can you please advise EXACTLY what day you are having the lesson?
I feel another trip abroad coming on
I will be delighted to hear how the instructor felt it went
Nice one, mate, very jealous.

You've still got a bit of time Nigel, Sep 7th. I've got to video/photograph the event (otherwise it didn't happen obviously) for posterity. Paul's spoken to the poor, unsuspecting instructor, and told him he's looking forward to it - the poor chap has no idea... Paul was all over the Forces helicopter's that were at the FoS in the Aviation show bit, which you had to go through to get in, getting them to give him tips on what to do.... He's most looking forward to trying to loop the loop in it
And, Kenton, great photo. That's got to be a winner.

I see you avoided making it look like the plane had come out of your car on an ejector seat
. Looks like you're hogging this category. Going to have to see if we can sneak the cars into the airport when Paul goes for his heli lesson - do you think they'll notice

There seems to be something of a Hawker thing going on, last year's top two were a Hurricane & a Sea Harrier, now you've found a Hunter. This is good - I like Hawkers, a prize for the first to photograph their car with a Hawker Hart? A better prize for anyone who arranges for me to photograph MY car with a Hawker Hart (or Fury)

This must have made an impact! 4pm, Peterborough Business Airport, or Conington Airfield (same thing). Makes it sound far grander than it is, it's in the middle of a load of fields, which is probably just as well. That poor instructor, he has no clue what's going to hit him. I just hope there are not Audis driving past at the time.
I think you're relatively safe though, how far can he get in an hour? On second thoughts, be afraid, be very afraid.....
