Just please I could find a use for my 1958 notes!
After nearly 4 years of box swapping on the 214 Valiant's, on posting to Akrotiri I was 'given' the GS bench to look after for 2 years. I became quite an expert on its innards.
The main user of GS at Akrotiri was 13 Sqdn and transient a/c. So I became familiar with Mediterranean conditions.
I also had to remind some of the Navs on 13 that the operational spec of GS was up to 60,000 feet! They were too keen to snag the kit for 'Unlocking at height'!
Their concept of high was different to the Valiant Navs.
Aren't I an anorak?
As for DD62, I'd never heard of it. Obviously after my time.
