    Love to go! Just a small matter of 3000 miles of water :(

    I saw Mose Allison in a small club in Montreal in 1974. Happy memory.

    People, GO, really go :thumbsup:

    Never flew to Canada except for development cold weather trials AFAIK.

    When I was learning to fly it was mainly within radio range of JFK and Concorde services there had just started. With my English accent I was sometimes asked to confirm that I was flying a school Piper and not a BOAC Concorde.

    Yeah, I'm at 85kts and 1500ft headed for some little airport in Pennsylvania on a navigation exercise :rolleyes:
