We'd recently had a 'bit of a word' from the fun-detectors for early turns at low level; in those days the SOP for an air defence scramble was to turn on course to Wallasey at 500ft, but many of us didn't wait that long. We also cleaned up at 1500ft rather than 3000ft for an AD scramble.

Absolutely right.
Please remind me of the rules and regs of the bad guys, that must run into paragraphs, surely ?
l`m easy with this stuff, it`s going to take five years before anyone really knows what`s lost and no way back. Nato Standard really.

How did the repatriation ceremony go this afternoon? BBC News reporting live from Carterton Memorial Garden. Looks busy.

I was in the Tescos in Lyneham the other day in flying suit getting some lunch before driving back to Brize when a lady came up to me and said 'We miss the aeroplanes'!
A bit of a contrast to the attitude of the residents of Oxfordshire?

Thought they townies got an organic box (bought from Lidl with the wrapping removed and a bit of soil rubbed in) delivered by a bloke on a bicycle (transit parked 'round the corner) every week.
