Tashengurt,

At first I thought that yours was rather a gnomic observation, but then realised that you are one of the lucky ones, having actually seen the "Fly Past" article.

Without seeing it, I would guess that their difficulty was that there are few Vengeance pilots left alive; a second (living) one has never yet appeared on this Thread; the best bet for the authors of the article (as I presume they know nothing of PPRUne), would have been to try BHARAT RAKSHAK for a lead into the IAF contributors on the VV. So they probably had to mine the ORBs of the Squadrons for information,and that would have little personal content.

Whereas here you have "the horse's mouth" and little else (of course, that is only as good as the horse !)

Danny.
