"It didn’t take much for them to ring McConnell and the next day there were heavens knows how many TV and radio journos waiting to greet the other crews when they landed."
Yeah, and before we set off, we were all given strict instructions not to do any more 'flypasts'!
My logbook says: Nov-7 / XM571 / GV Semi-Final - Land McConnell / 6.15 Day.
Great pleasure reading this thread. I'm just amazed at the long memories you all have. I can remember hardly
anything from that long ago!
Ooh, look! A picture of us having
just arrived at Barksdale!
