You should start a thread..."Flew the Belfast?" I'll bet lots of good stories. At the end of position report, "and no signs of scurvy."
Thanks for the suggestion, GF, it shall be done - and that might avoid further threadcreep here

Just to say, though, before I go - although the Belfast was nowhere near as big as your ginormous Galaxy, we could do one thing you couldn’t (I think!). Our freight bay cross section was 12ft x 12ft, which meant you could put a Sea King in without taking the rotor head off, and we often did, for instance taking a VIP version of SK down to Cairo for President Sadat. (Obviously, you folded the blades......)
