Best pilot I ever flew or worked with. I learned something significant every day.

See him cycling round the village most days.

Ah, Mr.G, stalwart of the OCU and BBMF and latterly a guide. Top man. :ok:

+1 for Groombucket. What a lovely and talented bloke. Remember when he stopped flying the Lanc (I think it was from an injury scurrying from a Scud attack in GW1 - clumsy arse!) and bought us all a beer in the Mess shortly after.

His son in law is also a top bloke and talented - if a little short...:ok:

Brilliant chap Ricky Groombucket! Thoroughly enjoyed my F-4 trips with him - with that cheerful chuckle ever present.

Top bloke, G+10; not only a fine aviator, but also a French and Russian linguist and a mean crewroom bridger. Just don't ask him about the short landing in Akronelli he and Harry J did in an F4! :ok:
