‘Scotty’ (Roger)
 
Scotty is the man that made it all possible. When we needed some speed, we knew where to turn. Of course, achieving warp drive out of a 50 year old engine is no mean feat, requiring a good run up and then a fair amount of engine grease... and once we’re flying it’s all about hanging on to your pants for dear life. Now that’s not so easy, as you’ve invariably used them to clean oil out of the head gasket. But whatever we need, Scotty knows the way. Of course, life hasn’t been without incident... the odd scrape, the occasional ‘lack of’ engine... but we never fear... well only occasionally. Last but not least, many of the photos we have today are all due to Scotty’s keen eye and his many multiple Canon Ixus installations. The man’s a legend in every way... we give you SCOTTY!
