My brother-in-law was an aircraft electrician with the FAA at RNAS Lossiemouth from the first Buccaneer S1 arrivals in the early 1960s until the Gannets left in ’78.
In the late 1960s he came home with a cartridge and container for me from an FAA Hunter, so I buffed up the cartridge and kept my school pencils in the container.
Recently I had been wondering what had happened to them, as it’s not like me to throw things out, but my son answered that question when he saw these photos – he used the same container for his school coloured pencils and pens, and it’s still around somewhere…:)
