yes , actually I think this site says he left the UK in August but I think I read afterwards it was in September. Maybe he took more than one trip to and from USA in that short time. Will check.

Anyway there's another very chilling letter from John on that site....

..and there's also one from the unspeakable one (MDC) . .if you want to check it out on that site too.

..apart from the content of the letter I think it's interesting as he may have written it on the flight he & Yoko took to the USA when leaving the UK for the last time..

cornflake – Nice to see you back where you belong.

Thanks very much for sharing that. Every time I see something handwritten by John, it sends chills down my spine.

That very well could have been the flight in question. According to the history section on this glorious website, it would fit the timeline.

9 October 1970

14 September 1971 – Date letter ...]]> Sat, 28 May 2011 04:32:41 +0100 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/john-lennon/angry-letter-to-nyt/#p36363 John Lennon http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/john-lennon/angry-letter-to-nyt/#p36363

In Flight... yes
Altitude... puzzled
Location... yes

I.

But seriously, I remember reading in You Never Give Me Your Money that someone convinced/guilted John into paying a lot of money for benefiting from black artists all those years... I'll look it up, but it's interesting that he would be offended by the idea in this situation but not in the other.
