Nige,
Slick-Hercules fiasco????
I was told it was a well-supported operation that had the in-depth knowledge and intelligence (sic) back-up at the highest level of MOD - rumour has it that the DefSec and ForSec (and their aids) thought they were in fully protected aircraft - ho ho ho!
Or did we all just close our eyes and cross our fingers and sit on coils of chain while the 'emperors fiddled'?
