Now listen to me soddim.

Well, the mind boggles that nowadays a fighter pilot could face the challenge of a female QFI with varicose veins!
At my age mate it's easy. No need to look at the fireplace whilst stoking the fire.

Time: 1966

Place: bar at FTS RAF Acklington, Northumberland

Situation: me beering with personal flying instructor (ex fighter pilot):

"Let me give you a good piece of advice for the future son. Never ever turn down a shag"

Best advice I've ever had.

Mind you, got a lot of flak sometimes but b********cks, I'm still alive and kicking.

You getting the general idea FlareAngel?

Beags,

AH gyro acceleration errors - it's a QFI thing
I think we had better keep that sort of stuff to ourselves mate!
