Hi Haraka! I'm not sure if you were on the same ULAS Summer Camp at Thorney Island as I was in 1970?

One fine day I noticed one of our Chipmunks being taxyed (dual) rather rapidly from the RW, then coming to an abrupt halt on the taxiway. The hood flew open and out hopped 'Stumpy' who set off at an urgent pace towards the hangar door. With his little legs, it would have been impossible for him to be bent double, of course, as his bone dome would have hit the tarmac.

Fortunately he made it - just, so he told us after he'd walked back to the crewroom looking much happier. The cause? A local curry house the previous evening!
