diesel addict,

I think you're right, Pegg's remarks sound like they were made to a pack of jostling reporters, whereas what I'd been told that he said, sounds more like a comment made to a fellow crew member in the heat of the moment, but it seems like it wasn't his remark and so isn't mentioned in his autobiography, where according to the RAF Historical Society article, there is a record of "his far more mundane intercom exchanges" (their words, not mine) maybe his, but like you say, we'll probably never know!

Back on Thread with apologies!

I've advised FAM about the mistake in their listings of the HP 115 as XP980 rather than XP841. Well spotted T-21 and who better than JF to confirm that XP980 was a P1127, happily, I should say "is" because it survives and is also on display at Yeovilton in the same hall as the 115, if their website is correct!
