Look guys,
Chinook 240 is advertising on behalf of the organiser. Stop giving him rocks about who is and is not invited. If you want to go, PM him. If not, stop chiselling. If you are unsure whether you are eligible, talk to Odiham Mess.
Either way, f**king grow up.

MG and HS,
Thanks. Sad, isn't it. Already had a PM from a friend betting I wish I hadn't bothered!
Need to go night flying now.

xenolithBy the cringe!
It's worse than I thought! MG and high spirits hate groundcrew and rearcrew as well!

Shame 33 Sqn went to Benson, you could have celebrated it alongside 33 Sqn's Crete day, it would appear to have been rather fitting.

“The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.”
Thanks for keeping the thread at the top! The response has been excellent and I should thank you all for that.

They're probably all down in the George with the station PRO wondering how it all went wrong.

I'm getting confused - is this going to be a 'bring your own kebab and can of wife-beater' and stand in a hangar..........or something else? Clearly weight of public opinion might have an effect? By all accounts the Puma bash at Benson was a great success.......might be a model; or not!
Old Duffer
As a further aside, the famous and much decorated Mr 'H' - who travels down the back in the chinny - was the guest of honour at the Gulf War Jaguar pilots annual dinner at the RAF Club this year
It will come as no surprise to you that having arrived early with Mrs "E", he joined us in the pub on Old Park Lane to watch the rugby and get gubbed, did a speed change into drinking suit with medals, gave a fantastic 50-minute after-dinner presentation and drank more than anyone, yet managed to stay lucid and presentable until most of us shuffled off to bed, leaving him with a semiconscious group of KOS doing their best to match him in sensible conversation. And failing... Top bloke.

Not a patch on the one D+++l W++++X used to do, though a lot appears to have been copied from it........... sorry, but true.
I take it you mean Darryl W+++++ks, yes a lot was borrowed from him as the first RA(A)F Chinook display pilot and his display was superb! I guess he set the standard everyone else had to try for.
I've been in touch with him this week and he says he might make it over for the dinner. Thanks again.
