I am looking for some help to try and contact Tim Nolan. He was a pilot on 29(F) when I joined the squadron after their return from the Falkland Islands. I know he also toured at Leuchars (presumably on F-3).
Tim has done various pieces of aviation artwork and we have a number of his paintings displayed at my place of work. I am trying to source some background information on one of his paintings, which was either commissioned or sponsored by my workplace.

I would be extremely grateful if somebody can put me in touch with Tim.

Please feel free to PM me with any information.

Thanks

Thanks very much for the information! Yes, I served on 29(F) from '82 to '85 and enjoyed reading your blog, especially the story of taxying back to the dispersal at Akrotiri sat in the 'wrong' seat. :) I still remember the day well.

My days as an FS tech seemed to consist of doing INAS aligns in the morning and lying on the rear cockpit floor replacing INAS kit in the evenings! Wonderful days and will never be forgotten.

Cheers
