There I was minding my own business at 2000 feet heading towards Westbury on Friday afternoon when an overall white with blue doors Gazelle appeared over my right sholder. There was a crest on the door and roundels I think . The formation lasted a minute or two- good fun but boy you made me jump!!! Where did you come from ? Boscombe?

You don't really expect anyone to "fess up" to this publicly do you???
:E
Sounds to me like a perfectly executed slow overtaking manoeuvre, executed IAW the Rules of the Air?
How's your look-out, anyway?:)

I thought that only the AAC still had Gazelles and they're all camo?
Hmm maybe ETPS has one still?

Yes they do, or two, XZ936 and XZ939.

OK Mods--Who was it? There was some light hearted banter in here between Whooligan (a Mod we understand) and a few others. Absolutely nothing offensive, no better or worse than is heard in every crewroom every day of the week, so why remove it?
Is the intention to totally emasculate Prune, is no one allowed any humour any more?:(

Nah. It was thought - and I agreed - that all the banter, fun though it was (even though I was losing!! :() had nothing to do with the topic and probably constituted thread hijack by me!
You want to start another thread about my 6 o'clock???? ;)

Don't tell me . . . you were looking at Biggus Dickus - lookout is sacrificed on the altar of penis envy :)

If he was, then presumably he's got pretty good eyesight:O
Compton Abbas isn't Cerne Abbas.
