I can now reveal that RAF crews were secretly involved in sorties to spread the ultimate weapon (codename DCS - soon to appear on a console gaming platform near you) around the North Atlantic. Between 1979 and 1994 I took part in a number of 'DCS spreadex' sorties, many over weekends and bank holidays, some of which have left my erstwhile colleagues battling weight gain, self esteem, and deprivation issues.

I don't think anyon e took photos - to be honest they'd be pretty gross.

I think I probably read about the Strikemaster sorties on the reverse of the Airfix instruction sheet, when they were still 2 bob a go.
