Byron Heights was a lot of fun. We must have played Bingo at some point, as we tended to get lots of dedicated airlift parking on the fwd deck for mini dets. I was one of the two resident Hookers (leave it!). I still have the scar on my head from a masterlink that bounced off my head on its journey from the Wokka to the deck. Helmet? Nah - I was in the middle of having my tea and just 'popped' out to see if I could help! That old drunk member of the ships crew sewed me up.

The Corato was like a mini JATE for me as I got to test rig a lot of stuff on the ships crane - and there was all sorts of un-flown engineer 'plant' I can tell you.
