I was on a EW course 3 years ago with Rupert Clark at Cranwell; to reinforce some of the points we were being taught he was given a slot after tea break at 3pm talking about Iraqi SAMs, his experiences and what happened on that fateful day. At 6.20pm he was asked to pause and continue his talk later on in the course, those 3 hours passed by in a blink of an eye and is particularly poignant today and the way he talked about his dear friend and how it affected him and members of his Sqn. Was one of the best talks I've heard in my time in the Royal Air force and certainly hit home at the harsh realities of air combat.
