I remember being an Ops Controller at Gib and a Nimrod crew asking me to sign their F540 cause they had missed dinner. Did you eat on the plane? Well yes we had rations was the reply well thats more then I have had I cant leave the bridge when your airborne and this tri service unit wont give me any missed meals!! I had to pay for take away food to be delivered when hungry when planes on task/inbound! Of course 9/10 times I signed, it depended how their attitude was and whether they had brought me haggis and tattie scones from gods country
