the observers view
we were in the office doing our things when we got the call,
Liverpool did look good that night, we lifted and completed our task.
The driver did what he was told he took us where we said. The job was good the guys on the ground and done the work and plan. Off they went driving in convoy to the house in question. The tension was there alright, all kitted up like caged lions, for week it had been planned down to the very last point.
The vans stopped in forbidden zone toe doors opened and everyone ran to the pre planned place. the clock struck the hour bang went the door bang went the window, the camera showed them in the radio was silent......... but then it came to life room clear was the shout room clear was again the shout........... this was a small terraced house not many rooms left but still it continued no the house was clear what had gone wrong the info the surveilance it couldnt be..............
It was the house owners must have known how could that be ?????
The journey back was deflated, the air was quiet............we approached the airfield, the lights were glim, cos the light man didnt look after them properly he didnt care, I was in the front, the pilot who just past his last opc was in the seat. Jesus I thought this is a state of the art bird how can you makeit so unstable, I forgot how many times we bounced on that landing, the driver went and we refuelled. We put it to the limit infact 9kgs over wow what a temper !!!!!!!!!!!
