Angry Brown Bomber

My crew picked the Brown Bomber up from Kinloss on 1st March 1977 and ferried under cover of darkness to St Mawgan where it stayed for several weeks on loan from Kinloss. As we taxied in to the line ATC caught sight in the lights and were clearly impressed.

I think that Kinloss were very happy to hand the embarrassment to 3rd Div South. When driving in to work at St Mawgan from Truro the "BB" was clearly visible from Carland Cross (about 7 miles from St Mawgan).
