Yes I have his (Jim Cox's) address and I have (just) written to him for his phone number so that I can drop in and see him one day.

I was seriously thinking of organising a 7 Sqn (Canberra) reunion in Evesham (Jim's town) if anyone is interested. It could be easily enlarged to be Canberra's (for anyone) buffet, drinks and chat.

I left in 1990 after a further tour on F4's and 4 years at A&AEE Boscombe Down in the rank of Flt Lt. My current title(s) are MSc, PhD, C.Eng, FIET, AFRIN.

Ps. Did I ever tell of the navaid-less return from Cyprus with George Nettleship (or the FIR dodging trip out there). By the way George and Jim are mentioned in the "Bucket of Sunshine" book which I have just acquired and which is an excellent read (even though some dates are slightly dodgy - e.g. B61 entry to service).
