I particularly enjoyed the article in the Bzn Gateway magazine talking about the training week in May and how, 'all the C130 crews are fully onboard with the move to Brize' as a result of the successful training there
I too saw this and assumed that, whilst I was asleep, North Korea had trundled over the 38th Parallel, toppled the west and then installed their chief propagandist as a writer for The Gateway. I mean, seriously, did the bloke that wrote that article actually speak to the C130 crews?? The only thing they were onboard with was their aircraft back to Lyneham. Brize bent over backwards to provide nothing and made no effort to practice
merging the station's operating procedures. God forbid you want to get a 2 ship airborne and there's a Tristar or VC10 within 400 miles of Brize. Oh night flying? No, it annoys the locals - I suggest you go to Lyneham for that.......
Genius.
