    Well they do rely on Sat Navs now! Incdentally a guy at the local boot sale has an almost complete set of wartime British Costal charts for £50. Hie late Farther in law was coaster captain. Some have the courses marked- with compass points. the reason it's a nearly complete set is I've got the English Channel Mid Section with the Channel islands for £2.50

    Insurance claim should make intresting reading. Mind you, some years ago the personal pilot of Middle Eastern head of state was conducting a ground test of engines on HRH's personal aircraft. He chose to operate the throttles whilst standing bettween the seats. As the engines built up power the aircraft jumped the chocks, our gallant pilot then exited aircraft with extreme agility. Aircraft then entered a hangar, all on it's ownsome. Apparently a sudden vacancy for 'Personal Pilot' appeared.:cool2:

    Maaaybe we could persuade certain gentlemen to add a 'mistaken' live round to the firing displays? :cool2: at least we now know why the Tresury purse strings suddnely burst open. Fortunetly the Departerment of calvados have made it quite clear the Vetran's are and will be the Distingushed visitors.

    the Jackal was at the Lord Mayor's show in London. The guys were only to happy to let me poke and photograph. Many of the members of the Forum have military or para military experience. None of us are stupid, we all know when to keep our mouths shut.
