First try at posting a pic, so apologies in advance if it is a c**k-up!
As an aside, the pilot flying 642 in this photo is Al Brindle, who has featured on PPRune a few times, not least as one of the '22' in the Hunter Loop at F'boro. I took this in 1968.

Hi Fishtailed,
It was nice to see a picture of Percy on PPRuNe. I wish I had a £1 for every time I have sat in the cockpit of one of those writing down Torque ITT Ng Np and fuel flow at idle. Stans in winter was the coldest, Riyadh in summer with the ECS on full hot was the hottest. Ouarzazate was the most interesting, the only flight trial I have been on where the team mutinied aginst the leader. Brough and Warton were fairly mundane in comparison.

I recognized Percy too. Flew her in 1999 prior to a five year stint in the sand box. I wonder where she is given all the training is done at KFAA now.

I wonder where she is
1993 in original colours, my first trip
2011 with the coffee stains, my last. Thanks Chris.
