Yorkie Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Sorry, posted a couple of quesions before introducing myself. Here goes anyway. Lets see... ex Army Air Corps, left nearly 10 years ago, started as Driver/Sig Groundcrewman, on SIII FFR, RL, MK aircraft refueller (now why don't we see many of them on the circuit?), progressed onto APCRA Saracen (briefly) and then Sultan, Class II HGV on a knocker (interesting), then went into the flying side. Now working offshore, with time to spare, and hoping to acquire a Commer 3-ton GS, for restoration. So far, this forum has provided me with a whole range of useful information, and I'd like to express my thanks to all who've assisted. Much more to come, I'm sure. And now a piccy for all you Pig fans; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Good to have you here Andy and welcome aboard! ..........who is the dude in the picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted March 31, 2006 Author Share Posted March 31, 2006 Sadly, I'm not sure of the dude's identity. He was a buddy of the photographer, my brother, and the photograph was taken in the Shankhill Road area of Belfast in '84. I've got a photo of me with my last set of military wheels, if anyone's interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks to pretty to be a soldier :shock: Lets have a look at the picture of your MV...it is a GMC, isn't it :twisted: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted March 31, 2006 Author Share Posted March 31, 2006 Well, I'm not sure if it qualifies: it's an MV, and it's got wheels, but..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russell sprout Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Hi Yorkie, Were you based at Gatow/ Berlin in the early 1990's?????? and a stint at Gutersloh???? What job are you doing now offshore??? Cheers, Rus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted March 31, 2006 Author Share Posted March 31, 2006 Sorry, Rus, but never based at either Gatow or Gutersloh. Spent most of my time in Detmold. I now sit on a large, floating drilling rig, watching about two dozen alarm systems, keeping it the right way up, and surfing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russell sprout Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Think you left before my time, I too am ex AAC, and knew a Yorkie in Berlin etc..... Looks like we might have more servicable vehicles than the corps between us.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
