I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Derek Murgatroyd, our lead dry. Mick Muttit, on the OCU when I went through. Sitting in Port Beam RTB from Malta and west of Portugual:

"Port beam, Foxtrot, 10 o'clock."

Followed moments later by 4 Foxtrot, one Don.

We were at 35k.

One of the last times the Sovs did a surface rotation.

Gents both.
