@ Flying Dutchman: Sorry, I don't speak Dutch, but have been here long enough to put 2 and 2 together and get 22. Thanks for the iTunes info and I'll have a look. Now, just for shits-n-grins, those metal-heads that are here among us, try this: http://www.knac.com you'll like it! It isn't aviation re...
