Plan B.
I'll find a body of water near Volume 31, you let me know when you're airborne, I'll listen out for the Sunderland and wave when I hear you approaching.
That's the ticket.
Roger Delta Charlie, ackniwledge co-ordinates received I'll find a body of water near Volume 31, you let me know when you're airborne, I'll listen out for the Sunderland and wave when I hear you approaching.
That's the ticket.
Thanks for that!
If all goes to plan B, I anticipate arriving overhead RDV point around 23:59 hrs precisely.
It will most likey be dark, so instead of waving, please could you fire off a couple of marker flares when you hear us approaching? But not directly at the old girl thanks.
Golf Romeo out.
Now then, Flaps set to 12.5°, let's power up!
Hold tight everybody!
( adjusts goggles )
Release handbrake.....
And we're off!!!! Throttles to 100% : Props to Max RPM : GO GO GO!
It's pretty noisy in here!
Getting a bit bumpy...
Kicking up some spray...
Vision blurring:
Serious buffeting now....
NS, initiate RATO... NOW!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!
That was awesome! We're airborne, cleared the church spire weather vane by quite a margin. It will probably keep spinning for a few hours.
Jettison RATO packs.
OK, levelling out now at Angels12, turning onto corrected heading.
Wow, that was exhilarating, eh? Phew!
NS, could you please take the controls for a few moments whilst I pay a visit to the cludgie?
Thanks old chap!
Safe journey all of you in the Landing Craft Lagonda and the Sopwith. God Speed!

If you are airborne could you stack over the Trivton-under-Water reservoir? I have to go and cook.
Cook? Yes, good idea, I am feeling a little peckish after that trouser-threatening take-off.
I have brought some salmon and cucumber sandwiches and a flask of pea and ham soup and a choc ice.
Great invention, the Thermos flask.: keeps hot things hot and cold things cold.
Whatever will they think of next?
