The very first trials unit of four B2 Victors was C Squadron which operated from the far side of the airfield at Cottesmore circa 1961, the CO of which was a very nice Sqn Ldr who's name I forget, but who came over to the crash-bay one day to introduce himself.
He was the Captain of the Valiant which had a serious in-flight fire and landed with a huge hole in a wing and a few seconds left on the main spar.
