Ah, the fence at Y453 with the boss. He looked across and said "well it's faaackin lucky you didn't do it cos you'd be right in the ****", then simply smiled his enigmatic smile and no more was said!

The previous boss giving the entire squadron a stand up bollocking for a litany of offenses (border crossings, cups of tea spilled over centre consoles, certain display pilot's tailstrike from a level quickstop!!)

Same boss then a few days later is temporarily unsure of his position rather close to the proximity of the ROI. Announces, "er we have might just have nipped across the border I think"; crewman A*** T*** calmly adds "yeah boss, about 2 miles ago!"

V***e A***a for doing a two year tour and having no entries in his bar book!

Zero speed spirals which simultaneously illuminated all four oil captions briefly.

Explaining to a visiting engineer on the FAC that his fatigue life planning example for the Wessex didn't very accurately reflect the way it was really operated (ie pull to max torque and leave it there for 2 days). Forced them to re-write the entire planning schedule - did anyone ever tell the Chileans when we flogged them?

M**e D*****s being regarded by the RAF flight safety team as the biggest single FS hazard in the entire RAF - we all knew that anyway.
