Another Beverly dit.....

.....but could it be true?
I had a captain on the kipper fleet who had been on the Bev. He claimed his most frightening moment was at an overseas base where, for some reason, it was decided to have a cocktail party in the cargo hold. Late in the evening he was saying farewell to one of the VIPs on the ground outside he saw that another crew member** had persuaded a pretty young thing to accompany him on a walk along the top of the boom; exiting from a hatch above the wing and re-entering another hatch at the back of the passeger cabin. She was in high heels and clutching a glass as she teetered along.
Could this have been possible?

**PS my money is on it having been the flight engineer

And yes I did really like the Bucc pictures too - honest guv. Who? Thread drift?? Me?
