Ksimboy, I was alm on the day Janet Ellis did her C130 jump. The crew were given cloth Blue Peter badges and my voice appeared on the clip shown on the tv programme. The only problem, they showed our takeoff while you could hear me saying "nose wheels chocked, main wheel chocks removed"!
XV305 CMk3 Flt Lt Harris 9 Nov 1983.
Nige Rogoff, who 15 years later was to lose a leg in the "Aston Villa" incident, was the trainer/despatcher.
