Re: RAF Boulmer closure to be reviewed

Hi Maple, Thanks for the welcome to PPrune.
Back in Kent in 84/85 (pull up a sandbag) the radar was so bad that we never used it. We sat round a Ouija instead and held hands (No not like that!!!) Neil Wilmot was the CO then, followed by Kev Pellet who wonder of wonders eventually evolved into an Air Commode I'm told. Anyway, I left the mob in 87 giving up poor pay, duty, Queen and Country for capitalism, greed and the easy life.
Excuse me while I go for another Pimms
Yours, Ray

Oh yes - Boulmer? close the place and integrate into the real RAF. Both the zoomies and the scope dopes might learn from the experience. As for the ATC thing, They are all fine people, but I wouldn't want a child of mine marrying one.
Yours, R
