course_profile,
If you knew retrosgone as well as the rest of us you would not be as quick to judge. He was a very respected Pilot and QFi within the Nimrod fleet.
retrosgone ,
bumped into said Co last year in Sleaford Tesco. He had made the dizzy hights of Sqn Ldr (I know hard to believe lol
) He had just PVR'd.
As for the inter crew war of the wailing minaret alarm clocks - that's another story altogether.
I remember waking up one morning to find all the roller track around the tent had been taken up in the night due to several buried clocks going off. The rest of the crew had spent most of the night digging them up. I had slept through the lot. Always did like my sleep.
