Recall several years ago being part of a 2 ship that was tasked to take part in an airfield assault at an airfield in France with 2 C160s. We met the 160 crews at Leeming for a day of rehearsals, which went surprisingly smoothly. A social evening in Bedale ensued where the French crews were introduced to Black Sheep and several other fine local ales, followed by the inevitable ASCOT curry. Several of the visitors announced they weren't fans of spicy food but allowed us to order the milder curries cooked in wine!(Vindaloos). Certainly was a picture, and i can only imagine the odours on the flight decks on the French Aircraft.
