COPES
I seem to remember a push, in about 1980 or so, branded co-pilot enrichment scheme (COPES) which involved V-Force Co's being sent back to BFTS to undergo a short course on the JP 5 and then being sent on to Valley to be re-treaded for FJ.
One of the guys, doing the course at Church Fenton, speared in somewhere near Spadeadam; apparently he found himself low level in appalling vis, he tried a bad weather pull up and apparently over cooked it. RIP.
