ABL262,
I spent 21 Nov 77 to 18 Jun 79 on University Engineering Flight (UEF) at Abingdon. Whilst I was actually posted to Oxford UAS we only split to postings for summer camps. This allowed us to maximise the manpower, and cover the ground servicing of 6 AEF Chipmunks as well. What a smashing tour that was, and I can certainly claim an hour at least in 07 with Flt Lt Eric Steenson in early 79 I believe. Low level through some great terrain, and being "bounced" by a Harrier. The annual invite to THQ by the aircrew to the Groundcrew usually resulted in the workers (us) winning all the challenges, and usually even the schooner races. You have a nice beast there, even though I was an Airframe man by trade, I hope it's got a "green spot" injector. Enjoy.
Best wishes and Happy Birthday 07
