Britannia crew

"had a flight deck ride in a Brit....<snip>

Still had a crew of four though - two pilots, engineer and navigator. I seem to remember that the nav handled the HF but I'm not sure."

The Brit would also have had either an Air Quartermaster or Air Loadmaster (depending on the era) on board as a member of the crew.

The last Air Sig in RAF service that I know of was a grumpy old bu66er instructing Helicopter rear crew at the SAR training unit @ Valley.

Still, being based at Valley would make anyone grumpy.
