Danny, I second Icare's and MPN's wishes for your speedy recovery. All here is despond and neglect, as Icare says. So hurry back, and give that laptop of yours a jolly good talking to so that you can join the fray again when all is Ops Normal.

Icare9, well done on your diligent research in locating Tempest JN759. Operation Diver was beset by many perils, given that the target itself packed up to 1000Kg of Amatol or Trialen. Hence the preference for tipping them rather than shooting them down air to air. To fall casualty to our own AA, when they were supposed to occupy a different sector to the fighters is surprising, but perhaps this was before the deployment of the AA to the coast? Was the "contentious exchange" with the MOD?
