This must bring back nice memories. I read the replies. These are the special occasions you remember. I have the same with my dad (who passed away 31 years ago) I am glad you and I both have pictures to keep the memory alive. I love this picture. This must bring back nice memories.

It was just a holiday, not for the TT. Although in later years we did end up there (co-incidentally) when the TT was taking place. My Dad would know what the aircraft was, but I can't ask him anymore ;-) I will ask my Mum for more details (and photos) and maybe we can work it out between us :-) The only additional information I can add for now is that seats were as low as the wheels…

Off to 'Mann' as the locals say. :) (Well, so I'm told.) Was your Dad interested in the TT motor-cycle races perhaps? My first flight was to Jersey from Heathrow, and the second was from Jersey to Guernsey on an old Dakota aircraft with square windows. http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=dakota+aircraft&hl=en&rlz=1T4HPEA_en-GBGB436GB436&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=d1kpUJvUOIzY4QTRsoGoBg&ved=0CGEQsAQ&biw=1084&bih=563 Sorry for the long link. :( B :) The reason I ask CherryPie is that I notice it has those strange square windows.

It was a very small plane and not very comfortable by all accounts although I obviously can't remember it ;-) If I remember I will ask my Mum for a bit more detail.

I wonder what type of aircraft that was? Better not tell - it might give away your age. :) You don’t look at all impressed by your first flight? I wonder what type of aircraft that was?
