My Dad is an air enthusiast.

My Dad likes watching programmes about aeroplanes, engines and the industrial age. At night he watches countless hours of Discovery Wings as it reminds him of his airfix kits. He often talks about the hours he spent as a boy trainspotting in Epsom.

Dad was very sad when he heard of the passing of Fred Dibnah because no one else could say so much, so well, about pipes and steam.
