With the Omega, due to the 'H-Field' antenna (whatever that was) it often dropped out in heavy rain. The Department of Changing Names insisted on dual Omega for the Pacific flying as a result of this problem. On descent into Apia going through a heavy shower, both dropped out. Maybe we should have had three of them and three black rings around the nose.
Dora, hard to believe the life we once had. Lunch now is a Subway roll bought in the Terminal, normally the final bite taken during push-back.
