Wide angle cabin view aboard Tango-Mike. This aircraft was built in 1944 at Loughborough by Brush Coach Works and delivered to the RAF as serial number NF875. She was purchased in 1945 by Iraq Petroleum Transport and began a career in the Middle East where she remained in service until 1964 then returned to the UK as a parachute trainer. She was overhauled and repainted in Navy colours in 1977 before moving to Duxford as an air taxi. It was here that she was re-christened G-AGTM and so became Tango Mike. The aircraft was damaged in a minor landing incident in 1987 and taken to Audley End for repair. She was bought in 1994 by Dave Geddes and fully restored. Tango Mike returned to the skies in 1996. I loved every second of my 30 minute flight aboard her from Blackpool, up the coast to Fleetwood and back
