I was there too, yes, we were something then, weren't we?
I remember the 7 S58s being converted in Hangar 5 and AZDC and the trenches (earlier in the thread). I remember the tea room in H5, old George Tippit's green Skoda and Sid who used to empty the rubbish. Then in the new main hangar, there was old Maurice Reed in the stores, his expletives out did most. He was an ex boxer and groundsman for the Orient Football Club. You were in trouble if you didn't have a Part Number! Those old guys were characters.
