Grrr dark and stormy day

I remember a very stormy day! A day we Couldnt convince the aircrew to go home so we cud get some early rectification work done! After falling from the side of a wessex in a big gust of wind I was getting angryer and angryer! Then it happened a lone crew member had been pre-posistioned on the top of a cliff on the return he was found to be missing! If was later found face down in the water! Un-forgiveable risk flying that day Not only because of the dead crew member but injured ground crew that day in the winds.
