Back in the day when every young man wanted to be a single seat fighter pilot (and those who expressed doubts were sent to see the Command shrink at Brampton) there was a chap on the course ahead of me who was adamant he wanted to fly VC10s. Everyone else (including Staniforth, the CFI) thought he was nuts but 'trucking' was his thing.

Paul went on to fly the Ten before moving across to the Canberra where he unfortunately met his fate.

PS. Never chopped, merely 'streamed'
