Doncaster - New recruit!

**Mrs Kyte** · 09-25-2014 11:48

It was so great to meet so many of Rob's Wingmen at Doncaster. I was a 'driver', rather than a 'Flyer' but you all seemed to be having so much fun and were so friendly towards me that I have finally succumbed to the lure of the Drome! It only cost Kyte a pair of shoes and a handbag.

I hope to see some of you again at Derby.

Eileen (Mrs Kyte)

Happy Flying, dear Wingwoman

I'll be there somewhere as an escort!

**Dan-Sam** · 09-25-2014 12:54

Dear mrs. Kyte. Let me welcome you here on our second home and wish you many pleasant moments here. And last but not least, let me say "thank you" for your support of your husband in the name of all members of the website

**flash** · 09-25-2014 13:09

Well done Mrs K - will it cost him that much for each show ..??? !!

**Flying Helmut** · 09-25-2014 13:12

Welcome Mrs Kyte!
Our intrepid WingCo will be unstoppable if you fly escort with a stack of fire blankets for him!

**Barkmann** · 09-25-2014 14:16

Greeting from Brazil Eileen (now formally)!! Great to have you here.

**Lt. S.Kafloc** · 09-25-2014 15:35

Rob, that's all the purchases at shows under scrutiny now.

Welcome Eileen and happy flying.

**gully_raker** · 09-25-2014 16:39

G'day Mrs Kyte & welcome Eileen to the 'drome from down in Australia.
You know what they say ----"Behind every great man is a great woman" & this is certainly true in Rob's case.

**Tommy Z** · 09-25-2014 16:44

Welcome from Ohio, Eileen! Thank you for your support (or is it enabling?) of Rob!

Welcome to the 'drome, Eileen.

I'm going to throw self-preservation to the wind, and give my version of the above: "Behind every successful man is the woman that made it necessary."

And the comment, "It only cost him a handbag and a pair of shoes." could be daunting. It depends on the name of the designer in each case. Not to mention a new handbag needs to be filled, and shoes make more shopping possible. The costs could escalate.

The flip side, more minis will be needed for a new collection. Unless we revert to the other rule in our house. What's her's is her's, and what's mine is her's. Which could lead to F.O. Kyte needing to start another collection?

It is soo complicated.

If I bring my Better Half to the Meet next year, I may have to find her someone else to hang out with. Eileen might be a bad example? And Marion won't be much better, now that I ponder this whole thing.

Even more complicated.

Well. Still a hearty welcome, Eileen. Perhaps you and Rob can shoot me down virtually a few times for practice before we get over in person.

A big hi from Alberta

**milcoll73** · 09-25-2014 17:20

welcome to the drome Eileen

**Willi Von Klugermann** · 09-25-2014 18:56

Welcome aboard Mrs. K.

**Naharaht** · 09-25-2014 21:53

Welcome to the Aerodrome, Eileen, from here near Norwich.

**Archidamus** · 09-26-2014 00:25

Welcome from here in Tunbridge Wells Eileen (chaps, I think we'd better play down the volume of G&T's Kyte consumes in future )

**Mrs Kyte** · 09-26-2014 01:10

Thanks for the warm welcome chaps. No worries about the drinks in the Officers' mess - I'm well aware of the G&T's imbibed. I have no need to count Kyte's planes, as long as he doesn't tot up my fabric and thread.

Eileen

**Boney10** · 09-26-2014 01:36

A very warm welcome to you Mrs K, from Bristol

**QB Fox** · 09-26-2014 01:38

Whato Eileen! [waves]

**Flying Officer Kyte** · 09-26-2014 02:04

I suspect that protocol directs that I should afford my own Good Lady the same consideration which I give to all new members of the Drome.

Therefore, it is with great pleasure that I welcome Mrs Kyte to the U.K. Wing.

I am sure that the chaps will look after you just as well as they have done for me.

Let us then amble over to the Officer's Mess together, and share a small libation with the other pilots.
Rob.

**Guntruck** · 09-26-2014 02:11

Hi Eileen, welcome from Essex.

Rob got away lightly. It would probably cost a new car to get Mrs Guntruck to have anything to do with wargames in general and aeroplanes in particular

**Hedeby** · 09-26-2014 15:02

Welcome aboard Eileen and lovely to meet you in person at Doncaster.

**Baron Rolf** · 10-12-2014 13:33

Welcome to the aerodrome Eileen

I'm mainly there in the background but Rob has been painting up a plane for me, so it looks like it will soon be ready for a few sorties.

Eileen

**johnbiggles** · 10-13-2014 06:43

Well if you are ever in our neck of the woods come thursday evening, Mrs J-biggles and I will take you to the club for a flight or two.

**Thunderbolt** · 10-13-2014 08:28

Hello Eileen,

Welcome! I hope you'll enjoy your time here. No safer place for flying

**HotleadColdfeet** · 10-14-2014 08:42

Welcome to the Drome from the plains of South Dakota, Eileen!

**Dowters** · 10-14-2014 08:49

Greetings from Leicestershire, now you just need a brick in the handbag to keep him in line!

Hi John.
I'm sure that we can arrange something one evening.
It would be nice to have the company of you both away from the hurley burley of the Knot for a change.
Eileen.
