Glory Camlough Mountain.

'I was feeling pretty stupid cos I didn't have a gun'.

True story of a Wessex crew in Northern Ireland (when everyone was really, really wanky) who got stuck VMC on top of a hill as the fog came rolling in down below in the valley.

Initial euphoria subsided as they realised they had left their gats (Ed: this is street talk for guns, from the Latin, Gatlingus, meaning guns) at home.

No gat, no hope.

Luckily, the pilots in question went on to high rank, and here, in 2011, we have it.

Looking good.
