One of my compatriots on Shawbury course 68 ('88-'89) lost a 1200 lb training load somewhere in deepest Shropshire...apparently it hit and killed a prize cow.
Both Crewman and Captain deny touching either of the SACRU releases, and the hook was checked and passed servicable...
The Crewman Leader (He of immense RAF Tenure) was not pleased and was seen wandering around clasping his silver axe...
