Octane (#11701),

We didn't operate in the Monsoon (couldn't - you need 10,000 ft of clear air below you to dive-bomb accurately with a VV - the dog must see the rabbit). We pulled out from our dirt strips as soon as the rains were imminent, back to paved airfields further West, and sat it out except for admin and training flights. There were only a few PSP strips, I used them once or twice and was horrified at the row made when we rolled over the stuff.
