SOSL, no, I didn't have much interest in 13 year old space cadets.....

Valley 1975. Friendly Gnat student spots 2 lads in blue wandering around the 2 Sqn Ops area looking a bit lost. "Hi chaps, my name's W**t*n. You must be here on Summer Camp - which ATC sqn are you from?"

"Err, no. Actually sir, we're from GRSF and are here to fix your Hadley Box!"

Ooops!

Sadly W**t*n later Cat 5'd himself in a Hunter at Brawdy - probably after becoming disorientated following a low level abort into cloud.

Just to keep lurking spacies happy, someone once asked how to spot the difference between an older ATC cadet and a young airman. The answer is easy - the ATC cadet will be the one with the smarter turn out...
