Hello Roger. I've come late to this thread, but wouldn't have been able to help anyway as I was out of the game by the time these events occurred. Glad you got your info.
Its funny how your perspective changes as you get older. When I saw Dick Russell on the programme about Black Buck One a while back he seemed younger than I remembered him when I was on 214 in the 70s. But of course I was a fresh faced young lad then and he was an ancient grizzled old flight lieutenant of at least 40!
