Even though we had a good get together in July to celebrtate the 40th anniversary of the Puma. Is the annual reunion still on this year?

I bet you can tell a table full of Puma loadies a mile off, they will be the ones kneeling under the table looking out

Thank you for being so helpful with you reply to a direct question. Despite having being on the Puma for 7 years I still have no idea where the normal place/time is.....

You've been on Puma for 7 years, and you still don't know?

I must add, your date of joining PPrune seems rather "fishy" to me

'It's only me' is not the only one. I was Pumoid groundcrew at Gutersloh '86-'90, & I have no idea of the details of this social fracas.

Is it a bit like joining the Masons? Do I need to shave a leg or something?

Not just a Loadie do
Anyone who's current or ex-Puma are more than welcome, its surprising some of the faces that turn up.

Seldom - you're far too young to be a grandfather, surely!

Now, now now then now......
Philrigger show a bit of respect - there's no such animal as a 'Loadie' on helicopters.
I presume you mean a 'Crewman' or you really do need to get some time in....
