Coffman,
my first Bloodhound rotation was in XV 213 on the 13 June 1968 from Butterworth to Lyneham. So you can see that from the outset the 'K' was doing these type of tasks.
Fugazi, I do not know if you served in the RAF but believe me cock ups like the one I described were not taken lightly and could generate a huge blame game.
Hence our call to Ops. Otherwise we could easily have been the fall guys.
