Forword by Robbo, my very own ‘before’ picture.
And me or Flood could do the after !!!!! 😉
Can you tell what RIAT is ?
Royal International Air Tattoo, usually at RAF Fairford
Snapper do you mind if I use those pictures to put the fear of god into some children hanging around my back garden area ? 😮
They scare crows as well !!!
You probably know that he died a couple of years ago. Would you happen to know anything about his time with the Pakistani AF in late 1940s-early 1950s?
A friend of his lives not far away from me here in Jersey, I aim to meet up with him in the not too distant future, I will make enquiries. I’ll also see if Roman has any relatives in Canada that may be able to help.
While he was still with us, a friend copied his log book. I have a copy of the copy if you’re interested.
I would, especially his time with 315 at Woodvale in 1942. His son became a rock star playing with the band Curved Air in the 1970’s.
Blok’s memorabilia have been donated to the RAF Museum, although they tend to deny that. I took me about four requests before they admitted they had his log book in the archive.
Conni has sent me copies of the relevant pages from his log book, and also a number of photo’s of him.
Any chance to see their log books (copies)?
Nick Najbicz sent me a copy of his fathers log book through a third party who was travelling from South Africa to the UK, unfortunately I never received it. I will contact Nick again and Mark Uchwat to see if they will send us copies
I’m just glad me and MRSEN830 hid away from the maddening crowd.
White no sugar please.
Where ?
Shall we form a circle?
Isn’t that a man who dresses as a woman, or are we back to squiggly Shaun’s idiosyncrasies
You’ll win, I don’t race.
Is the guy to the left of the van, trying to race it ? He would do better if he put his cup down.
Now there’s a group of people who are fond of blowing their own trumpets.
I spent half an hour watching this green thing on Sunday and it didn’t break down once. It’s been unjustifiably maligned.
Quite sad really aren’t you? Did you get it’s number?? Didn’t you spend an hour or so standing on Whittlesford station before coming to the pub???
I don’t even remember a bouncy castle. I saw an inflatable EN830 though.
Bloody kids kept on jumping on me. Should be band all of them.
It’s all your fault.
It’s no good apologising; I knew it would come to this.
