Bravo November
 

Does anyone know if BN is still active in the Afganistan theatre. I saw a TV documentary a few months ago (but I do not know when it was filmed) which featured that particular aircraft. I was interested because as far as I recall it was the sole survivor of the Atlantic Conveyor loss in 1982.

I did a search but failed to come up with anything on this forum.

I think you might find she is back in UK having her bits looked at.

You are right, however, as she was the sole survivor of the initial batch of Chinooks sent south and she was being air tested when the Atlantic Conveyor was attacked.

Go on then, what is Bravo November? Is it some bloke or something?

Karma, ever heard of Google, it's quite a popular search engine ...... that's an engine that seaches the t'interweb thingy :ugh:

Yes, partly correct, It's a Jolly Green Giant with things like huge Bollocks slung underneath. if you look through some recent threads you'll see a picture of one with not 2 but 4 Big balls pre "having her bits looked at".:)

.Now if you had actually READ (that is if you can read) the post above yours, the poster actually says what it is and part of the story as to why it is famous, or at least the first thing in it's history that made her famous.

Bravo Zulu, Karma (which apparently is Navy-speak for well done)! Only 8 posts and already a flak magnet for the sense-of-humour challenged!

Karma: This link might help

Let me google that for you

Sorry Karma I should have been more specific in my OP. Perhaps I should have mentioned Chinook, ( I certainly intended to, but missed it out inadvertently). As you will now know this heavy lift helicopter had to do the work of several during the Falklands War.

Thanks for the links guys.

Witb your sas background i thought you would have been very familiar with bn from the ac right through to the current day

I was way too hyped up and focused on the mission ahead to worry about what type of aircraft I as in.

:D

.....words almost fail me! Outstanding.

As he's on probation (should be medication) can't one of the mods just sin bin him so we don't have to listen to any more of his childish purile Walt cr4p? :yuk:

You can hear me? You must have good hearing. Ever considered a job at GCHQ they like to listen to things far away.

And with every post he just makes the case stronger ...... Prune Pop, Scroggs, wholigan where are you when we need you? :(

I found a picture of Karma walking with his Cowboy friend...

'BN' visited Shawbury last month so its back and flying.

Methinks that the more people react to Karma the more he will post!! Ignore the Troll:mad:

Clockwork mouse where in the OP was 'Bravo ZULU' mentioned? The a/c in question is 'BN' (which of course was it's original 18 sqn letter designation).
