Squawking 7700 #20,

Very true. I well remember a summer camp with OUAS at St Mawgan, when our boss, insisted that the leading edges, wing, fin and tailplane, were cleaned of insects between flights. We did so much that on return to Abingdon all four aircraft had to have re sprays on the leading edges. As an aside, I was fortunate enough to have my name painted on the side of 'Bravo' which was the mount of Flt Lt Mike Blee RIP, who was very kind in offering me many opportunities to share a flight. With a diminishing memory I wonder if anyone can confirm the Serial number of ' Bravo', ISTR XX661 but am not too sure these days.
