I flew against ROBSON in an A4G with DROP empty drop tanks and we had a stalemate with sortie ending due MIRACLE low fuel. As it happened there was an issue with the Mirages that required them to be able to divert back to WillyTown from NAS in case of an undercarriage problem IIRC. Anyhoo it was EYE-opening
for sure to hit the burner from the back seat in my ride later that day. I was not given a certifcate (one may be found online) however my logbook entry has been cut/pasted onto it.
