Hello Pauline And Everyone who knew my Dad. I came across this website by chance, whilst trawling through the history of PA474. I was at Waddington back in August to see the 2 Lancs at their younger sister XH558. Great day. This took me back to when Our Dads were aircrew. I first met Derek, Shelia and Pauline back in 1969/70 when our Dads were stationed at Boscombe Down. Yes Dad could be "Grumpy" at times, but when he and Derek got together, they were like naughty school boys always chuckling. I remember, Bill, Jacko and Ray's name rings a bell. I have enjoyed reading your comments. Thank You. Any More..? Oh.. Did the PA474 ever visit Berlin during the 70's? Or was it the same trip as Laarbruch?
