A prat is someone whose is a major idiot, or is delusional and dumb. I don't think this applies to Scott.

Great thread brought back from the dead. Three years on, I think we know that GW has withstood the test of time. ELC has upped their game. And the prices have gone way up. It's interesting to have the perspective!
I was out in Seattle a few years back, also at the Museum of Flight, in front of the B-47 where the OPs pictures were taken. For those who have not been there, it is a very impressive place, up there with the Smithsonian and the AF Museum. There is also an active runway that the museum backs up to and Boeing Military division uses it. While I was there, I saw a new RAAF AWACS plane take off for a test flight. I wish I had looked up John at that time, but I had not graduated to GW yet.

Great post...I both loved the pics and of course hearing about the adventure with John Chapman. Awesome.

What the hell is tunnelling and why is it so bad?

No I'm not up with the guff!

Steve, when the sleeve is excessively long, the knitted cuff is partially or fully hidden in the 'tunnel' the sleeve creates.
Just aesthetics really - I don't like it, but I'm shorter in the arm so it's more marked if the sleeve is long.

Aha- got it, thanks Ian.

Im glad this thread got resurrected. Great pics!

I love the pictures. The second one with Stony pointing out something of interest looks like it came out of a WW2 pre-flight briefing "righto chaps, heavy bomb load today, if we don't make rotation by the row of hedges at the runway threshold, we RTB, ok?" :lol:
