Thanks for the clarification Bobby - as I said, this is a rumour site (and as you might guess, information caming back to LBH could easily get the "send three and fourpence" treatment), and the rumour was based on images of the break of the cockpit section from the noisy end of the jet (causing wires to tension and ping and fire pyros, etc).

Fading memories, was your MQ in Cochrane Drive? The one that joined the great semi-circle of Trenchard Drive (No 53 for me); and my children often getting grubby along with yours.

HTB...I meant the MQ in Tabuk; they put a 4-ship per MQ.

Yes, our kids played together a lot...there's even a great pic my son and your daughter in their car seats in a jet.

That's OK - slightly crossed wires here - my comment was for Bobby, who I think lived close to Muttley at LBH (JB and his brood had the corner house facing mine, and almost opposite him was B**l Ea**n.

I do recal being given a bed space on the coverd verandah of one of those Tabuk MQs for the one (and only) night we spent there. Shown round town by our Senior Int/PI who was on loan to the mixed det for some reason.
