Speechless Two. I remember Lt Cdr Dunbar Dempsey well - a very professional, approachable and friendly man whose loss was very keenly felt at Church Fenton. I was slightly involved in the BoI and part of the follow-up - it was a very sad task.

The Sea Prince was usually referred to colloquially as 'The Admiral's Barge' although why any Admiral needed a 'Barge' in the middle of North Yorkshire was often debated! I fact, I seem to recall that it was used as a general 'hack' and David DD would often fly Naval students back to their home bases at weekends as well as his QFI duties.
