Welcome Spike, I knew you as well when I was at Saxa Oct 88 to Apr 90.

Yes isn't that Slappy Hunter escorting the AOC there who was the CO at Saxa in the late 80s?
Sqn Ldr Peter Hunter? No fan of the Bristows aircrew as i remember!
You must have been there when "Ron" lost the sea kayaks and we published the The Unst Bastrad (of which i still have a copy).
I remember that ..... bit of quality reading material I'm sure DB (one of the writers) ended up having a few one to ones with the hierarchy over the contents
