Fond memories of the 'new' Meteor fire practice airframe at Manby. All the fire Crews were braced for the exercise, but sadly Plt Off Arthur ***** had left the signal Very pistol in the Landrover. By the time he got it, fired the Red cartridge, and the Crash Crew got there it was almost self-extinguished wreckage. i guess they got another one later.
