Arghh! Should have known that. I was at Wyton and had PVR’d (Premature Voluntary Release). Having been at Wyton for four years I qualified for an environmental posting (should have been a priority posting to any place of my choosing). As I had plans of working at Aberdeen when the time came to go I applied for Leuchars or anywhere in Scotland. Whoever dealt with my posting certainly had a sense of humour. I was posted 70 miles up the road onto 50 Squadron!
It was probably the same person who dealt with my potential Father – in – Law’s and my postings back from Singapore. We had spent two years less than 20 yards (workwise) from each other – uncomfortable! He had asked for Leuchars or Scotland as I had done. I asked for Wattisham or East Anglia. We both went to Scampton. Oh how they must have laughed.

Morton , one guy I knew at Odiham applied for an environmental posting as his was wife getting pissed with his never ending detachments on a Puma Sqn, he got posted across the airfield to you guessed it, the other Puma Sqn.
I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
Back on topic, an off chance, but does anyone know of R88 Film Cassettes available for a collector?
