Heros

Outside our new offices there is a statue to Alcock and Brown. In 1919 these two plucky chaps completed the first non stop trans Atlantic flight in a machine that was nothing more than a giant box kite. It took them just under 16 hours. The statue is about 50 yards from the runway at Heathrow. I wonder what they would make of todays jets
