I was a QFI on Vulcans and was posted to Canberras. Then the Falklands came up and I was held on the squadron until Port Stanley airfield was built.
I went to Canberras and when I went to the posters to have my palm read before retirement and they said that after a couple of tours on the Canberra and perhaps a tour on Jetstreams, I might go on to VC10s. By that time the VC10 would have been older than the Vulcan when I joined it in 1971! Needless to say, I left at 38.
