Jan-April Round-Up

Post by Lloyd H »

Not a bad start the year so far, a couple of plans delayed but all in all I can't complain! I've thrown some civvie shots in as well as I didn't think they warranted starting a new thread, hopefully I won't get chastised for it. :smile:

First off some work with the lovely people at Wilts air ambulance.

A visit to the 56th RQS to start throwing around some ideas for a future article that will be in Vertical911 later in the year.

Then the long slog up to RAF Lossiemouth for JW 16-1, where I was spending the week with the 56th RQS. Unfortunately I picked up some weird bug that meant I was man down for most of the week, I only managed three flights and had to turn down four for fear of chundering everywhere. It was such a shame I couldn't do the second week when the PJ's were up there, the shots would have been epic.
