Many seemed to enjoy the last "Ripping Yarns" opportunity we a had a couple of months back ... so I thought it might be a good time for another topic in the series.
Prompted by a couple of recent threads posting some cracking low level cockpit footage ... I came across this little gem yesterday.

... I pass no comment on the sound track
I hope this clip will prompt a few members to share their stories from TWU, OCU or Squadron days ... the more amusing or comical the better
Sadly my only experience is limited to a righthand seat "sandbag" trip in a JP5a with RFS 3FTS Leeming in 1980 ... a two ship spirited tail chase ... it put a smile on my face for weeks
Best ...
