Longer than you did ???

Thanks Ascend Charlie. If Creampuff did 18 years then I certainly did more than he did, 5 years more in fact. I joined 18Feb1958 and left the RAAF 21Marc1981. I joined 36 Sqn late '68 as a Sumpie, trained as a C130A F/E commencing late 1970 and flew with both 37 Sqn and 36 Sqn up until end Dec 1978. Underwent B707 conversion at Qantas starting 2Jan'79. I have no idea what time, if any, Creampuff spend on, in or around C130's, but it is obvious to me that his idea of "plenty" is at odds to mine. I don't really have to justify anything about the C130 in RAAF service, the records speak for themselves.
