I was at RAF Swinderby in Feb 1975 and had the pleasure of having JC as my DI he may have been a B*****d to all other flights but we had some great fun at all other flights expence. He just had to look at you and you could see everyone check their buttons ties etc. I now use a similar technique and it still works making the person feel they have done something wrong. As said previously JC and Sgt Petrie always wanted to win the flight challenge and thankfully for me 19 flight did. All the best to JC and I wonder if he did make SWO. JC's nickname for me was "Spewy" but that's another story for a 17 year old underage drinker.
Went to RAF Spittlegate closing dance where Mud the pop group played long time ago but great memories until the next day and the rest of my time at Swinderby.
