Salve, O Tin Triangled One,

Having flown both backstairs (or downstairs in the coal cellar wrt your love affair), I have a tale or two to tell wrt the crescent wing, V-tailed masterpiece.

Tin Triangle time: as a Waddo "umpire" during Bomb/Nav Comps; now, yer Vulcan PLotters would never go so far as a swifty TACAN swith on for a couple of seconds to check the Astro calcuations.

(Joke Time - They never did - Bless 'em)

KIndest Regards from an agiing Tanker Nav Plotter in Scotia. "Maintain Heading please"

aka as an RV Bravo

following an 10 sec EE Ligtning F Mk 6 Collins received transmit. Brilliant lads they they were indeed. It was our pleasure to keep these Jocks travelling on.

Can still view via the rear view perisope as No 74 Sqn, the magnificent Tigers, slowly edgie in for a contact en route to Singers. Never missed. Superb pilotage as per usual..


PM please as I may have some Victor rippers for you considertion.
