Wycombe,

I'm afraid the C130 piccy you mention is a spoof. It's a montage constructed by my loadie and the station photog at RAF Stanley in early 1986. They had great fun getting the Medical Centre staff to pose for the 'diving out of the way' bit! No-one seemed to question why the SMO was on top of the SMC ISO container. The piccy of the Herc used in the montage was taken of an aircraft on short finals by a very brave chap who sat in the undershoot.

Great days - and there was some very serious (and usually unrecorded) low flying there. The F4 wearing the farm's HF aerial was during this period.....
