The Brian in question may well be Flt Lt Wheeler, ex 47 Sqn C130 driver. But meanwhile back to the Owen saga. OO'M was indeed a raconteur and bon viveur san pareil. An ex Belvidere driver his image is still on the wall on 60(R) Sqn at Shawbury (the successors to the real 2 Squadron, 2FTS). Just before the 1973 move to Abingdon he left a dining in night at Murphy's Bar (the Officers Mess at White Waltham) early and had to be ambushed and dragged half way back from the quarters patch before he fought his way free from the ambushing drunks. He completed a much needed reorganision of the Town Headquarters and did a memorable tour down the spiral staircase to the platform at the former Brompton Road tube station. His apocryphal? F1369 preferences of Dominie, Dominie, BOAC was a superb lesson to the wannabe youth; he got Dominies. I last saw him driving an HS125 with the registration N125AS and have heard he has retired to Malta. Unless the Flying Lawyer or the Senior Student can add any more.
