Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

It is a WRAF as she is wearing girly shoes (although I suppose it could be MCS as well!!) but my guess is Bev Jewitt, ex 29 Sqn clerk and all round great gal!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

Just to keep you on your toes - you are all wrong so far!!!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

If you were drunk; you could almost imagine it was a tall Kate Skillen. However heard from John that Kate never did any WORK till after she left the RAF!!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

George, its a Mk2 so it couldnae be Kate, and her denims are too dirty for Ms Skillen anyway, unless she was working on her bike.

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

OK I give in... how do we know its a MK2....?... Dont suppose you know the Sqn! Cheers

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

Not me - you're right about the denims - far too mucky to be mine! It took me over 20 years to wear them out.

You can't wear a pair of denims out; they just mature with age!!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

Hey Frank... Mature denims? A bit like your KD shorts in Cyprus, I think they missed the VC10 home and walked back to Coningsby on their own!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

Girlie denims never mature - same as the bod that wears them!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

OK Danny, I want to know how it's a MK11, what the tail No is and how much fuel is in it? You are a sad man and always did have more Tail Numbers in your MCS book than me!! If by any chance you can answer all of those I might buy you a 1/2 pint at the bash!!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

Its not an arourer as the never wound the rounds themselves. Is it Pam from Coningsby LOX bay? Cant recall her surname

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

Oi, Mannion!

What's with the 'girly shoes' and MCS? Any more of that and I'll pout at you at the reunion over my creme de menthe!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

George, its a Mk2 'cos the Mk1s had two sodding great hooks on the underside for the catapult launch strop. It would be visible between the bottom of the splitter plate and the front of the rear missile well. I remember it well 'cos I've still got the scar where I nutted one when I slipped on some spilt fuel on a starter crew.

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

Not sure but maybe a young girl we "borrowed" from tech records to play Stats Clerk on 29(F) in '85 I think.

The name Kate Frost rings a bell, always happy and good fun.
(Had to be happy on H.M. Holidays)

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

It's not Kate, Brian (and funnily enough I'm still in contact with here - she's married and lives in Tayport, Fife) and suffice to say, there is a catch to the answer!

All will be revealed on Saturday - See you there if you're going!

Re: Guess Who feeding the SUU?

To all those guys that weren't at the Reunion - it was Anita Turner, Barry's better half on her hols in Cyprus!
