Cornish Jack.....,
What Service were U in? Notwithstanding Comp Case criteria re attending Fathers funeral..., (I know many who had to endure similar comp application dissapointment..., happened a lot out there...), however, you should have received a minimum of 30 days R&R either back to UK or to other climes e.g. Silver Sands resort in Niarobi. Anyone not getting this minimum of R&R would probably have committed Hari Kari...., it was not a nice place..., even worse was up-country at Dhala and Habalain... now that realy was the pits..., Aden commonly known as the Ar$hole of the world..., and Khormaksar being 27 miles up it!!!
Microlight AV8R...,
Also had free flight to Kenya..., but in a Shack..., only to divert to Majunga Madagascar due to Ian Smith - Ba$$tard..., declairing UDI and us now having to spend our 3 week leave assisting in securing and pumping Avgas from 50 Gall drums into Shacks..., so that they could fly ship spotting missions to deny oil tankers getting into Rhodesia..., so much for Silver Sands...!!!
Did get up to Muhurraq for a two month swan which after Khormaksar was sheer bliss....
Affirmatron...,
Do I know U???? You'r NOT visiting ME in May..., I won't be in...!!!
If you think that its a microlight - best get down to Specsavers..., U will get 2 for the price of one...!!! 
Pontius Navigator...,
OM is at 12 49 26.5N 45 01 51.8E The OM swimming pool (empty) is at 12 49.23.19N 45 01 51.24E
208 Sqn (Hunters) dispersal is at 12 49' 39.77N 45 02' 03.04E

Nice one..., Didn't spot these..., but last time I was there..., there was a scrap B26 which was used by RAF Fire Service for fire and rescue training.

Looks like a big oil slick to me...!!!! Must have been a Fat Albert in there that popped a gearbox seal....
Any more for any more????

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
Wonder what happened to No 3 engine?
29 33 10.2N 52 34 06.8E
Not to mention possibly 11 Fencer, a couple of Fitter, 3 P3, a couple of dead and 8 live? C130, 7 Candid?

I am given to understand by a friend that this is a Battle of Britain Lancaster, the only one still flying in UK. There is another one in the Oz Museum, I understand.

"Gengis, How the devil etc etc etc
Good to see you on here not insulting a pointlessly self-important failed FTE cum Test Pilot (emphasis on the cum!!).
I think it's a microlight, I saw a great presentation on its handling qualities at every conference I've ever been to.
Don't forget I'm visiting in May.

- Affirm: I think you FTM'd the wrong Genghis there;-) How's the brain removal going?
