Default Just got back from Berlin....

Berlin was interesting.

I was on a gas turbine users conference and as an evening event I got a trip around Berlin, 600 metres from the ground in a DC3!

Piston engined heaven

Also got to witness the test area's for the latest A400 airbus engine, and got to see some in bits.

But also came across this in a show room

Andy, I don't like having my pic taken, anyway, but being one of the other masses to have a pic with that car is not my thing

A bit like those leaning tower of Pisa pics - no thanks!
