Re: Anyone remember Lightning DataLink?

Ahh memories stirred - Tinsmith/SLEWC, 525/625 profiles etc. Great fun at Wattisham field in the late 1960s, providing you could hang on to your sense of humour and the Boss did not notice you had only logged a 25 min sortie. In those days, the Chinagraph Monthly Hours line was GOD!!

I remember we all decanted to Cyprus at one stage for an Adex and it required almost the entire effort of the Albert Force to move 1 ACC to Epi Bay Headland. It then took most of the detachment period to get the systems running, just in time to go home, so bring on all the Alberts again!
