Atlantic Conveyor

I was in the 899/800 readyroom ( you know the big one on 4 deck where Des hung out and Neil Thomas slept ) trying to glean what had or had not worked on returning SHAR's and Dave Morgan came in ( it was late in the afternoon/early evening - but dark - and he must have just returned from CAP ) " Conveyor is out there" he said " - and its going up like November 5th ". DM always was a cheerful /upbeat kind of a pilot which I always thought percolated through to the deck crew to good effect

As far as the attack on AC - popular rumor mill/urban myth was that the down range Lynx installed I band transponder did the trick as far as saving Hermes and Invincible.
