When Mickey Martin took over 38 Group in 1968 he had only been running it for a few days when Chunky Lord and I deposited a Whirwind helicopter, XR 478, quite violently on the ground outside 38 Grp HQ as he was arriving for work He was then the first to greet us as we waded out of the wreckage.
As a VIP pilot I flew him quite often and later when I was on Pumas I had the opportunity again when he was CinC Germany. The area was around the dams so I picked one, flew around a hill and settled flying across the water towards the towers at 145knots and 50 ft., precisely. (Radalts. makes it easy)
"Does that look familiar, Sir?" quoth I.
He turned to me with a grin. "Not really. Wrong bloody dam."
