Coulda been worse - back in the early 1970's 231 OCU went on exercise down to St Mawgan,we were originally going by train but eventually sanity prevailed and we flew down in an Argosy (115 sqn - so fitted out for flight checking role) - hey more fun in a Whistling Wheelbarrow
I am assuming we flew back in an Argosy as well but do not remember !
