Interesting interview with Craig Penrice, who I believe posts occasionally on these forum as 'Tarnished', good to see that he eventually recovered from the broken back he suffered ejecting from a Hunter, not to mention the mangled arm and knee he suffered ejecting from a Lightning too!

I must be famous! I flew Craigs CV2 on 8 Nov 82 and FM1 the next day :)

What was the "blue" light when he talked about the blue and green lights changing places when the aircraft behind him rolled?

A true pioneer of early Typhoon testing, he was one of a few test pilots that made a huge contribution to the programme and were a pleasure to work with.
Craig was a real gentleman outside of his day job too!
