Does anyone have images from the 1994 D-Day drops. I seem to remember fitting every available wedge platform in the RAF inventory. I was up on one of the frames & somewhere I do have some photos (I think I was on about the 10th frame in the formation) but can`t find them to contribute.

The Paras were chucking before we made the runway, we were on start for such a long time on what I can remember was a very hot day, just glad we weren't at the back (how many frames was it in total).

It must have looked very impressive to get so many frames in formation, had a look on the usual online media but can`t find anything there either.

If I find them I will post them up with the Purple helmet images as well.
