Scary

Took part in many commando assaults, both at Yeovilton Air Day and other places. Aircrewman Instructor on 707 for the Wessie 5 /Sea King 4 conversions and it really brings it home seeing the August calendar phot just how far we've come. The SK4 looks like an antique compared to the Merlin. I trained on Wessex Mk1's progressing quickly to Mk 5's (still map and eyeball) to the Mk 4 with VOR/DME/ILS/TANS etc. which at the time was absolutely cutting edge. I feel older.... yes older... yes older....
