The very boy!
Just been told off by the PPRuNe computer for using 3 words when 15 would be acceptable
So, message amended to: Al Lockwood, the very boy, one of the few to have operated both GR and ADV.
Computer says
3 words too few!

Two Al Lockwoods - both at Gp Cpt rank? I thought that the Air Force was downsizing - I didn'trealise that this meant cloning.
The moustachioed Kiwi was OC Coningsby last time we were in contact.
If all serving members of HM, registered to vote in Sedgefield and voted for their ex-colleague............
what would be the chance of that?

BUT! is he the right stuff to be a Conservative MP?
If he is a good chappie, how come he was not promoted to Air Commodore?
Must have been a good Wing Commander to get promoted to Groupy, but then things did not go according to plan apparently.
What happened ????????????

The piccie is that of Al Lockwood. Gp Capt RAF (ret'd), to whom we all , confusingly perhaps to you, refer -----???? Whether or not he has the potential to be an MP is, in our grand democracy, up to his constituency voters. I like the man, and good luck to him, but I would imagine he also has a day job!

Ahh yes, Al Lockwood.
Wasn't he the guy that the RAF sent to New Zealand, to recruit their Skyhawk Pilots?
That's right, he emailed them later to say "F*ck off and join the Aussie Air Force".
Yeah, he'll make a politician....

To Safety Helmut's list you might add:
For adulterous conduct: John Major, Edwina Curry, Geoffrey Archer
For dishonesty: Neil Hamilton, Archer, Alan Clarke
MPs seem to be prone to being a sleezy self serving bunch - a sweeping generalisation I know but lets not let that get in the way
So let the electorate decide on Al Weed - Central Office obviously like the cut of his jib, but then again they liked all the other names mentioned!

Well, I wasn't going to mention it, but now it's out......
All I'll say is that in my limited dealings with him, while trying to transfer to the RAF, make me think he's already got most of the requisite skills for politics.
Take that any way you like.
