Typhoonpilot (if my memory is correct) is a former TRE who posted here under Tartan Guy and Cpt America.
A colleague alerted me to his identity sometime back, and yes Typoonpilot was ex US air hence the reason for protecting his former colleagues in his post.
This gentleman inflicted a lot of damage while he was here and I believe has tried to return as an SFE but thankfully the company turned him.
Enjoy your down time BM.................
