“It all started with a fish tank,” beams world renowned warbird pilot Stu Goldspink as I jump down from the wing of his delightful CAP 10B – N4238C – at Old Warden, Bedfordshire. This was back during an unseasonably warm evening last September, and the skies over the hallowed grass airfield were buzzing with all manner of types. Looking towards the Frenchbuilt aeroplane as the setting sun accentuated its characteristic curves I reply: “A fish tank?”. Stu laughs: “Yep… a fish tank!”
