I think folk would be more appreciative if they knew more about this 'daring challenge' from the DSAMO (the Witney rag's words, not mine).
Is he a low hours PPL? Is he scared of flying? Is he actually flying - why the other RAF bod with him?
Bit more info would perhaps help the more cynical to see that he is not on a free hours-build.
Whatever, best of luck to the team. Good to someone getting off their backsides for a very worthy cause - my money's in!
