    As a lifelong resident of Hemel, I must say you brought a tear to my eye. I was standing just outside my apartment when I heard the plane coming over the horizon of buildings. I wasn't able to get it on camera because I don't actually live in Hemel and have never actually been, but I'll truly never forget this. Thank you.

    Luton's got a bad rep in the States as well, and in space.
