Handing my notice in with The Clan

[TheLostProphet]

Well got my posting through the other day. I'm leaving sunny Leuchars for Brize Norton in Oxfordshire in October. Still have family and friends the correct side of the border so will endeavour to make it to what meets I can.

So anyone from Oxfordshire or Worcestershire?

Good luck with the new posting and make sure to keep in touch

Smart move - getting out before the wall goes up.

Nice and close to both Walkingshaw and Monkfish too!

No need to give notice or hand in your passport, your still the wrong side of the Watford gap

Your sense of direction was never good, was it?

Watford Gap is Watford Northamptonshire, not Watford Herts, so he will be south of it.

Yeah being closer to Walkingshaw and Monkfish will not be good for my bank balance.

Plenty of time for a few more meets. The other option was Lossiemouth which is a bit far north for me.

My geography of England isn't great I dont know where either of those Watford places are.

Cool working on the search and rescue with the Sea King. What role do they do?

I will be working with the new A400M aircraft. Don't know exactly what will be involved yet.

POSTED to Brize Norton ? That'll be a BIG Jiffy Bag.

Andy is a pilot in the Sea Kings. Not sure what's going to happen in the future as they are looking to outsource SAR privately aren't they?

Have heard that rumour as well. There is always talk of trades being civilianised. Some of mine has been done. Hope they don't do it with SAR but will have to wait and see what they decide.
