A very young Alan Arkin sitting in a B-25 for the 1970 film classic, Catch 22.

Jepp, too easy. But it's my favourite aviation movie (maybe equaled by the original "Flight of the Phoenix", I refuse to aknowledge the existence of the remake ). Among my Top 10 movies (together with films like "Silent Running" and "Dead Men don't wear plaid")

Have you seen him in 'Little Miss Sunshine'?..very funny film!

Unfortunately not. But I've seen him even younger in "The Russians are coming, the Russians are coming." (with a young Carl Reiner). One of the best films with a cold war theme. Very Dr.Strangelovesque.

MiG-31 Foxhound?

[Krabat42]

Yepp, the MiG-31. And there is another philosophical question, together with "Why are we here?" and "Why do people think digital watches are a good idea?". It is the question every one of us ponders about for months:

"Is Graeme sleeping some time or other?"

[Graeme]

You've got me all wrong Krabat. I'm getting plenty of sleep. To bed early and up early, (and Google), helps me solve life's 'riddles', like your Kettering Bug...

I was an apprentice there back in 1962, my first job was manufacturing spare flaps etc. for Beverley's.... before moving on to Buccaneers.

Also flew in Bev's a few times in the RAF from Khormaksar (Aden) to Sharjah and Masirah
