Ah Yes… Happy days at Papa Charlie!!

I was one of the engineers responsible for the construction and early evening launching of those spectacular hot-air balloons, plus manufacture of the accompanying refreshments (communal vats of Tequila, Vodka or Gin Flambé) during the early Papa Charlie days… The other prime miscreant was Dave White. These activities were usually followed by competitive fire-pit leaping, plus continuation of any outstanding Uckers grudge match issues.

On a more practical note, we also constructed the Bristow Papa Charlie rain-proof (ish) workshop roofing, jet-fuel fired heating system, plus shower and toilet facilities behind the “workshop/office” building. (Not all of these projects were totally succesful

)
