All ...
Many seemed to enjoy the last "Ripping Yarns" opportunity we a had a couple of weeks back ... so I thought another topic in the series might be appreciated.
In fact it was Courtney who gave me the idea given his quip about Tremblers aircraft always being a target !
Professional rivalry and general one-upmanship is a healthy thing and can be quite hilarious even if some short term bollocking's have to be endured. Many stories get embellished over time I'm sure ... but let's see what this invitation brings.
So what are we looking for ...
Example 1. The alleged nocturnal activities of a certain UAS involving a watering can, weed killer and a grass runway ... then an irate Station Commander a couple of weeks later
Example 2. A Tremblers F4 in 1988 on APC at Akrotiri that went tech and was left behind only to be zapped by their Base Mates 43 Squadron ... I wonder if a certain F/O Courtney was involved in that little escapade in some way
I bet the Boss of 111 was a "picture" when XT864 arrived back in Scotland
Best regards ...
