Most of the blokes on 208 in my time had gone through Strad under "Stuttering Mac", so plenty of anecdotes circulated. One that springs to mind was at the morning prayers when Met said the weather would stay lousey until afternoon. So "Mac" cancelled flying for the morning and told all the stus to report to Flights at 1400. One stu had the temerity to point out that, being Wednesday, it was Station Sports afternoon. Mac went into full tirade mode:
"Ssssssports afternoon? SSSSSSSSSPORTS AFTERNOON! I know you fffffffffffuc*ing sssssstudents! All you dddddddddddo for sssssssssports is lie around in your fffffffffffuc*ing pits bbbbbbbbbeating your bbbbbbloody bbbbbbishops!"
That would have gone down well on "Combat Pilots" - eh?
