I thought that IX Squadron (aircrew and groundcrew) came over extremely well with the mixture of self-deprecatory humour and irony that is so typical of the British services. My wife laughed herself silly at the junior pilot who had had a run of unserviceability and thought he was a "bit of a muppet" who had "contributed to the peace process. " They all came across as real, attractive human beings. Bravo!

My old dad, who I believe flew Harry Tates on IX in 1918, would have been proud of you.
