I remember my Flight Engineers. All older than me, all gone. Where would we have been without them. In the Neptune Harry ———— sat on a wooden stool in the entranc to the cockpit, next to the bank of electrics. Under a flap in the floor were the fuel controls which he could operate. JB was my Engineer on 120. He had his own compartment with all the engine “Gubbins” . “ Jacko “ on 205. Never forgotten and a great support. All ex Bomber Command Lancs and unflappable. I was able to keep each one all my tours on the Squadrons. So Forsini, I still remember them, though long gone.
