Jim was an ex RN WW2 pilot. Instructor at 631 GS RAF Sealand. Set the airfield on fire , literally, in mid 1970s. Walking back with a Sedburgh after landing ….lit a cigarette and discarded it. The long hot summer it was.... YEP. Fire started and chased the Sedburgh with Jim and his aircraft back to the hangar. Station fire unit could not cope with the blaze, and Flintshire Fire Service attended to assist. Happy days.
