It came about because we had a Chief Tech posted onto them when we the RAF were about to get them, he wasn't the brightest of sparks and was sent off to do the Airframe course ( he was an Engine trade ) followed by the Engine course, he was gone for several months on courses and was back awaiting his posting.
We had the visiting Boscombe one come in for fuel and the first time he had stirred for a long time he slid out the door like greased squirrel sh*t to refuel it, naturally we all followed him out as he dragged the hose out then couldn't find the refuelling point... How we all laughed at him, six plus months on courses and he couldn't even refuel it and needed the crew to help him out all i can think is he was looking behind the door for it..
Happy days
