Hartland Range once asked one of our TWU course at Heaven-in-Devon to give them a flypast on his way home from some air-to-air. To which he agreed....

"C/S, Hartland - never saw you. What height are you?"
"Hartland, err, C/S, err FL90...."



Word of which soon reached the staff. So, in the Pigs Book shortly afterwards appeared the following:

1. Flt Lt ******, fined 5 pigs for accepting an unauthorised flypast request.
2. Flt Lt ******, fined a further 10 pigs for letting the Sqn down by flying an utterly cr@p flypast!!

Happy days on 63!!
