Angry sense and (in)sensibility

Kpax,

Don't start all that conchy talk! If you start throwing logic at the situation who knows where we'll end up?

Anyway, everyone knows the world exists only east of the meridian (and south of Catterick) as far as some are concerned.

You wait, in a few years, when Harrier migration is all tiddly, we'll all be crammed into the MDA's desperate for control from Neat (desig Scampton) but turned down 'cos 56(R) have got a 1v1 going on. Someone will have a skeg at the UK(L)2 and say "hey, this area west of A25/N864 looks quiet - lets go fly down there". Then maybe we could stage out of a local base - one with over 9,000ft of concrete - then maybe we should see about working out of there permanently, we could even give it a name - say Yeovilton. Naa.....it'll never catch on.
