Would be interested to know anyone that flew "DH" as a war goer afterwards. I did see it go off on its first mission post repair with Baldrick, one of the other riggers on our repair team. Alas lost the negatives of it's see off. I know an uncle of my old Jag unit was in your part of the package (being the guy that got me in touch with SEngO for the raid info for my story). Rumours I heard that it flew like a pig as one of the taileron spigots wasn't as straight as it should have been. Les had asked if peace time repairs could be carried out. The lead Riggers on both repair teams had said it would be months if cat 3 standard level of repair was attempted. Bernies insert repair on the nose was the closest example to a peace time standard repair. All repairs passed the remit of restoring structural strengh.
