Ray Benton

Just heard that Ray Benton ex Sgt. Rigger on 92 squadron, has gone to the big Malcolm Club in the sky.
I hope he was reunited with his beloved Porsche upstairs!!! R.I.P big man.

Re: Ray Benton

Hey Jim!!! Really sad to hear about Ray Benton. Ray and I worked together all over the world when we were based on 38 Group Mobile Servicing - long before the Phantom days!

Then we crossed paths again while we were both on 92 Sqn. Where did this news come from Jim?

Re: Ray Benton

Sad news. Ray was the FS running the Det Support Party for a bunch of Tornado F3s in Alaska during 1998. I remember it well 'cos I had my 40th birthday while we were out there. The bristling moustache and driving style can never be forgotten! RIP big man.

Re: Ray Benton

I remember Ray, tearing round Wilders in his Porsche calling everyone "Ace" Farewell old chum

Re: Ray Benton

Sad news
I remember Ray was a sgt when I was a rigger mech on 92 sqn, when I was on tea bar duties he would order a tea and by the time I had turned round he vanished without paying, every time Lol

Re: Ray Benton

I remember Ray getting his Porky after his divorce. We used to tell him it was Volkwagen, or call it a Renault Fuego, Karl Boulton had one and they were somewhat similar in appearance. Well, not really but facts never really get in the way of a good windup. :-)
