Op Crew: Dominie, C130 Mk1/3, C17, AS350, Bell 412, Sea King Mk3/3A, EC135.
Jollies: Puma, Merlin, Chinook, Hawk, VC10, Tristar, EC725, King Air, Bulldog, Chipmunk.
Best memories are all from hanging under either a 412 or Sea King but the best Sqn has to be 24 at Lyneham.

Bevo: nice life.
Why is there a black Discovery with dark windows pulling up outsi........
They are coming to take you away Beags!!
I think its not the number of types flown that is important but how many have been on operational tours!! A piper or cessna is hardly applicable to a mil forum!
I have to agree with LM, quality not quantity is more important and should be reflected in one's profile!
Having flown the fastest and the largest I shall leave it at that!

I had the opportunity to fly (and see) some interesting aircraft as CO of the 6513th Test Squadron - "Red Hats". Other info according to my records is "Data Masked".

My own list as P1 extends to two (Cessna 152/172)
But I did get about 10 minutes hands-on a T4
When I was at Nav School one of the staff pilots was reputed to have flown every operational mark of Spitfire. As a stude I never had the nerve to ask an old and hairy staff pilot to see his logbook to check the facts, but I have no reason to doubt it.
