As you say Danny, the past is a different country. My uncle was killed in a training accident in an Albemarle. Apparently there was a 'dead man's spot' on take off where if you lost a donk basically you bought it. Which is exactly what happened to him. I heard the Beaufort was a bit of a pig on one donk as well.
