Smile Free te Aldergrove Two

Let's stop this injustice before it reaches the Honourable House. Another undermining debacle in the offing.....Release the Aldergrove Two Before it goes too far.

If it's anything like previous CR bustings they'll be NCR until either:. .. .A) they are suitably chastened or. .. .B) there's not enough CR shags around and the Sqn need a rotor tune on a Sunday.. .. .I do hope it was for an OM arrival.

OK spill the beans for an ex Ald blunty and Hon-tiger who watched the infamous OM departure (still say it was good to see and the 2 Brigs enjoyed the spectacle).

A mildly spwirited departure, we've all done them but-like comedy-the timing and audience are they key. . .. .Bad timing, even worse audience.. .. .They will go down in history - unlike their judge / executioner who will just go down.. .. .The king is dead, long live the king!

A helicopter found himself in a position where he was not wanted, so he took to the air and departed. On the way he retracted his wheels, Why? Well because he could, which is why the cab looks the K9s bits in flight, we all know that.. .. .Now you could embelish this tale of whow a little with such minor detail as height, speed, and audience, but dont forget to include Poacher turned Gamekeeper within.. .. .Oh it could get worse, they could be posted to 33........... mmmmmm!!!!. .. .Jordanian terrorist maintaining the standards <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> . .. .Allah be with you, drink tea. . <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="rolleyes.gif" /> . .T_M

Don't forget that in this day and age the secret of good comedy is timing; and picking your audience! Screw up on either (or both) counts and you will be hauled over the coals - obviously another thing that gets left out of the pitifully short training system is when, where and how to w*z - ah for the good old days - mine's a creme de menthe frappe old fruit - pip pip

Dunhovrin.

We've gone all decimal since you started flying from the other side of the airfield, our spots are now letters not numbers. The spots the TWO flew past were CinC and AoC.
