I’d just like to say a big HELLO to all the Eriba Forum users (http://eribaforum.co.uk/) that have been dropping by over the last couple of days. I’m not sure what prompted the visits, but nice to have you here. 🙂

Hello Eriba Forum….

There is another Eriba Group, Eriba Folk, which says a lot for the popularity of the Eriba Caravans
Hi,
I replied to one of your recent posts on Caravan Talk about Towing Stability but I think you may have missed it.
I thanked you for posting about the Eriba Z Axle, you are the only other person that I know of who has put forward a plausible reason for this. I am in the process of rebuilding a 1965 Eriba Titan that has such an axle and have been trying to discover the purpose of that particular design.
I also note from your very entertaining blog that you’ve worked at Warton Aerodrome, I was employed by BAE Systems (as they are now called) from 1975 up untill I took early retirement in 2004. I started out in the Electronics Department at Warton working on, amongst other things, the weapons interface unit for the MRCA (Tornado) and ended up in the Advanced Technology Department there. It’s a small world.
I would be grateful if you could give me any other information about the Z Axle configuration but I will understand if you’d prefer not to. Afterall why should I have a shortcut to information you probably spent a long time researching.
Kind regards
John
Hi John
I have sent you an email regarding the ‘Z’ axle found on some of the Eriba’s.
Sue and I passed Warton a a few weeks ago (we were on a site near by in Lytham) and I was surprised to see 13 Hanger had now gone… along with a lot of the buildings at the eastern end of the site. I can still remember Boeing arriving and spending all night connecting their network up in 429 building… it was the only time we could talk to Seattle!. One of my last memories was decommissioning the network in 302 ready for the builders to start turning it into the EFA assembly unit.
Probably should stop now… before I remember too much!
Cheers

Some of us have been here a while, and on other good sites
Hi Rod
Glad to know you have been dropping in for a while.
When I did the post about the Eriba Forum, a lot of people it seemed visited in a very short period of time and I wasn’t sure why so I thought I’d just like to say “Hi” to everyone.
Cheers
