How does one go about acquiring a sleeve or drogue target? or even parts from Type B winch; or do they just not exist any more?

Well thanks in advance for any advice.

I picked mine up on a beach in South Devon adjacent to HMS Cambridge gunnery school….

I left an aerial towed target thingie in my parents garage when I emigrated 18 years ago (picked it up on a beach one day). They just recently moved & I’m guessing they threw it out….

How old is this pillock?

& F22’s ain’t all that exciting I hear em most days & don’t even look up. I always look up at the 11am U2 tho…

ok, it’s not EXACTLY 11am every day, but you could *almost* set your watch by it, some days it’s 10.30ish…;)

Spoilsports, IMO a little wit in the right places helps people remember the facts. The best instructor I had in the army had us rolling on the floor with laughter but what he taught stuck all the better for it. Good luck and hope all goes well.

Heckling from the audience is also frowned on…. two weeks ago I had the misfortune to sit thru the most boring speech concerning how 2 girls were acting the doofus in a car & ended up being followed from San Diego to LA by some guy in a Ford Focus. They droned on about how they were scared, too bloody stupid to call the cops, freaking out, didn’t klnow what to do.. etc etc etc…

The speech ended, the deafening silence that followed broken by a voice from the back of the room that said “I sold that car”.

I’ve been told not to do that again…no matter how dire the speech is…Apparently some people didn’t think it was very funny at all:D 😀 😀

Woew, thats pile of info/links. I’ve also been told to stay away from wiki for some reason, can’t use it as a source (or at least not a credited one.. ).

Aye – 8 hours bottle to throttle and all that.

8 hours? I thought it was ‘3 feet”?

Hell, We’ve got 60+ wrecks that are unrecovereed in Los Angeles County.. maybe look a bit closer to home. There’s a B25 just a few miles from here in the bottom of a canyon but I’m not risking encounters with rattlesnakes, bears & mountain lions to go fetch parts off it etc..

I think there may be a few hiding under the bonnets of a couple of cars at Beaulea?
(& yes, I know I mis-spelled that)

I think theres a LSR car in the US that has 4 of em?

& “when I were a lad” Pounds yard on Pompey was awash with Sea lions….
