Caz,

"In flight meals?? You are having a laugh of course. The squadron claimed money and bought flying rations that were kept in the crewroom. The crew sat and ate those very rations before the very flight. At the same table I was sat on, so I can confirm they did eat. If you need that under oath, I can comply if required."

Care to comment?

It seems Northolt aircrew, who were charged with carrying the most important people in the UK including the very person I declared my allegiance to in 1974, serially flouted the requirement to eat breakfast, hence the introduction of "a system was instigated whereby crews were served breakfast by In-Flight Catering"

By comparison the system that had been in place for as long as I can remember at RAF Aldergrove not only more than satisfied the rules and regs you are attempting to hang this crew out to dry with but JT's post above completely shreds any hint of credibility you may have had with regards to this subject and I look forward to your response.
