Hi Larry,

Sorry if it appears that way, just tired of people taking advantage of a "free" site without asking first if they may do so. Those who have helped the site in some way in the past, or who put something back into the sport, or are doing it in aid of some sort of charitable organisation connected to the sport can continue to post their cause/services as I have no objection to any of that at all.

I do send emails to "offenders" whenever possible asking why I should let them permit their postings to stand and if they can convince me, then fair enough, they remain, if not or I receive no reply, then their postings are removed.

Yes unfortunately I have seen little to no racing at all this year as business has kept me on the hop continuously since early April. Only now is it slowing down a bit, allowing me to have a weekend or two off recently.

I think I have got more air miles in with BA since April, than some of their pilots have.

That old YM1 that I mentioned to you some time ago is now fully restored and looking great, likewise the YDS3. Unfortunately the old Duc has still to be put together, but it is getting there. Maybe next year it will be out.

Great to hear from you Larry and hope everything is going well for you.

Malcolm.
