Finally managed to secure my copy from WHS this week (found stashed next to Gardeners World this year :rolleyes:).

Actually, compared with the last couple of years, the 2015 edition is proving to be quite a good read ... yes I know it's written for a wide range of interest and knowledge ... but good effort :D

I did like the breakdown of RAF ranks in it. Explains nicely that a four-bladed prop is a Junior Technician but no sign of the insignia for an SAC(T). How many years has it been now since it changed?

I suppose I had better buy a copy. My last one had a major feature on Lightnings.
