No jest. There’s much consternation among the Victor crew about just how much is coming off the Maid… 🙁

Quiet day today really. The electrical fault with the Artouste is still being a pain to diagnose, we aren’t rushing headlong into dropping the Artouste until its 100% certain that’s where the fault lies. So there was much chasing of wires by Rick and John, as well as cursing!
We did have the pleasure of XH558’s company for a few all too brief minutes this afternoon- wow! Thanks to all who made this possible 🙂
Heads up- If anyone’s planning to visit YAM anytime soon, unless plans change next Sunday would be a good time because we should be running up the engines on the big jets. Assuming after the MOD raiding party’s done there’s any Nimrod left that is….

Being stood on top of our Victor watching the Vulcan when she came to say hello made me smile today 😀

… Until then we should just applaud what the guys there did achieve (which given some of the informed opinion of ex-lightning types on here, but discounting the armchair gloaters is quite frankly amazing) , and hope that the aircraft and the guys who looked after them all get to move on to secure futures.

Benyboy’s tale of woe regarding his inability to dress himself has just made me laugh. Followed closely by his slightly implausible justification…:D

I like! 😀

Would be nice if one of the Buccs made its way back to these shores…
