Ta,
I didn't work for him, but encountered him quite a lot, and it was plain to see that he was well regarded.

In flight? Did a taceval sortie once with no rations - the Nav had a packet of M&Ms that were religiously rationed out, and there was plenty of water for those who appreciated the zesty taste of swimming pools. Longest damn flight I was ever on, time being relative....Is that serious though, canx sorties for in flight? Surely not! (It's not April 1 yet...)

Get Mick Muttit in to explain how they did it on Shacklebombers - dropping off the junior siggie (whilst on night circuits) to nip to the chippy...
