Happy retirement, Bob.
A proud career to look back on, very well done, shame to see you go - but it makes me realise I'm no spring chicken meself!

I watched the SAR documentary when it was screened and would like to add my best wishes to Bob for his retirement.
A couple of years ago I did an Ambulance Escort from St Marys
Hospital in Manchester to a yellow machine that was flying a new born infant down south, Bob was the contact at the resue co- ordination centre, still involved in the protection of the new born.
I hope it will be possible for him to see this thread,

I remember Bob well from our time at Brize on the VC10 in the early 80s. I was just another brand new First Officer at the time but I have Bob to thank for some cracking hangovers in Germany.
All the best mate.

But back to the thread. Bob P figures in my log book quite a bit too (but never in the yellow ones!), so many congratulations on past service Bob and best wishes for the future.
And if Bob is 60, then I must be ...... oh b%ggar!
Yes,
All the best Bob - glad to see the guys (and press) did you proud at the end of the day. One of the best self loading winch weights around.
Enjoy the retirement.
