Airbedane - thanks, I'll attempt to gather up a bit more courage next time! Now that I've extracted the digit and joined SVAS, I'll aim to pitch up quite frequently. To identify myself last Wednesday, I was the young (ish) chap in the blue fleece with sunglasses perched on top of my head. A bit daft, given that it was December...
LowNSlow - I've heard these PPRuNe badges mentioned from time to time. Any idea how I can get hold of one?
