Yep..the p*ss flap story by BEagle is all true!!! Trust me.
As is the tale of the `Bona` who insisted on wearing his
Special
Trial
Fit Gortex extreme cold weather boots in summer. For lesser mortals, it is of note that these trial boots had a Gortex `sock like` insert fitted and a nice `Gucci` Gortex label on the side....So you could distinguish the Bonas from the common erd, I guess.
Anyway, this chap then initiated an Air Incident because his feet were too hot (in summer)
- F760 raised at vast expense..but then took matters in to his own hands and cut the insert out
Oh, how we laughed
My `65s` are still going strong after about 30 years, fitted the old USAF zip system whilst on Flag - fantastic.
and finally..I relished the look on the `Bona Mates` faces when, during the SCSR sea drills, we started pre-employment training for Typhie jocks going to Warton.. Typhoon pilots have inflatable boots, with a visible inflation tube, as part of the full cover anti G system - which set them apart, of course, from mere mortals with p*ss flaps....
