Many thanks for your contribution Specaircrew.

Linton was indeed a happy place in those days. Take a bucketful of QFIs from different backgrounds and aircraft types and throw them all together into a big melting pot!

The crewrooms/bar banter was something very special. Those of us who were ex-fighters loved being outnumbered.

Before I was married, the best occasions were the graduation balls.
Lots of "May I introduce my sister".

Somewhere out there is a student of mine who came to my room whilst I was "entertaining" - and guess who hadn't locked his door?

We had an Air Force then, in more ways than one.

At my wedding ceremony at Leuchars late '75, we were treated to a fourball JP flypast courtesy of the mates who had flown up from Linton for the occasion. Would that be authorised and happen these days?

Il Duce.
