I'm new to this thread and must admit have only got through the first couple of pages so far. WEBF you are spot on when you talk about poor PR. You can see from my own thread where I am trying to write a book about AEW&C and put some historical accurate and RAF promoting gen into my book, I have been virtually ignored by the RAF Media people, it seems that they just don't want to know and are still enveloped in their Cold War - can't tell anyone anything because of the OSA, even historical stuff that has no bearing on today's Ops.

Have ago at trying to find out any data or stories of 1453 Vanguard Flt of 1953 which flew Neptune AEW Mk1 aircraft, developing AEW for the RAF and you hit a brick wall and that was 59 years ago !

Cheers

Ian
