Thanks for the info Lance. I was an ARMFITT at No 11 (MR) Sqn 1964-65, during the same time that Colin was an ENGFITT there. He later became a Loadmaster, as I did a Crewman. It is about 60 years ago now, so I cannot remember him during those years. RIP Colin and wishing you blue skies and a strong tail wind to the big LZ in the sky. Replies: There have been no replies.
