I guess you had to sit on the tailplane for c.g. reasons??? Looks as if you had a good time. I was most impressed by the realistic firedrill.. someone spilled a cup of petrol, and that caught fire...
That'sok.. I just wish I had had more photos.. but in those days the digital camera was not every mans possession, if it even was at all.. :) Had I done it today, I would have taken as many photos as I could posibly have done.. but in those days it was quite limited.. was it 24 photos on a roll of film?? I can't remember..
I never knew this about your past, explains heaps.
There is a video I remember from your old channel which was about your memories of the very early youtube and how so much has changes, for some reason that video has stuck in my mind it was powerful.
Really quite an interesting video chap. I have major respect for the armed forces!
Good on you
