BEagle,
The first lady in the G -Suit, have seen her on back cover of 'Dogfight' colour photo book, Ian Allan pub or Motorbooks circa 1988. I see she has the same name as one of the mentioned acknowledgements who was a Sqn Ldr. Nice to see pics of RAF exchange personnel including the current Deputy Commander-in-Chief Personnel then strapped into his backseat mount of an F-14A at Key West with obligatory Union Jack adorned HGU-53P bone dome!
Memorable with regard to RAF Hospitals, the nice white uniform dresses of the PMRAFN
whom one saw at Church Fenton 2 decades ago, while queuing for food at the mess.
Legacy equipment
Wessex
Phantom
Gazelle
Andover
The varied fleet of the various RAe establishments pre DERA/ Qinetiq days in lovely colours from Argosy to BAC1-11, Gazelle, Puma, Wessex, Comet, Buccaneer, Phantom, Twin Pioneer, Jaguar.
Not forgetting Sek Kong (briefly visited it in early 94 and have last ever Gau Lung station pub. The cover photo showed one of the USMC MEU Tarawa class LHD docking at HMS Tamar with 28's Wessex flying above it. IIRC, from a conversation with one of the 28 pilots, the MEU ACE pilots on deck could not help but grin or laugh as it reminded them that they retired its piston original being the C/UH-34 two decades earlier from fromt line service. Think it was a bit of nostalgia even though similar airframes but complete design on our side of the pond and under license for that matter.
Cheers
