I would second your comments. Sadly I remember a couple of airtechs who went out to an aircraft and used the same road to return and never made it home. I also remember wandering about in the Ensikillen area in 1976 and to this day my blood runs cold at the thought of how stupid we were and how lucky. I suspect that if the IRA did spot us they probably thought it was a trap as nobody in their right minds would be where we ended up.
