I was actually part of a basing team for F-35B once. I think I got the job because my 'one up' realised I was a little bored.
I remember the meetings being led by a RAF Sqn Ldr...a GR4 back seater I think who had clearly put a simply vast amount of work into getting the jet to Lossie.
There were options upon options and a huge amount of documentation supporting them.
I assume all this work has been torn up for bog roll?
