During a typical working day the first jet would up by 08-15 and we often flew until 01-00 the following morning. With the nightshift hoping to fix all the snags in order that the next days flying program can be met. Busy times!!

I had forgotten about ‘937 – she didn’t “come back” that day. She was a 11 Sqn jet – I was on 5 Sqn.

trumper – I’m afraid I don’t do Facebook.
