Hopefully I am not suffering from the same medical condition, or else I shall have to seek employment in a coffee shop soon.<br />Yes, it is cool that you managed a few sorties under your dad's wing. Tragically, it's a premise in decay, as our commanding officers see less and less reason to write out a single paragraph to justify air experience for the families who support the men who maintain the bird and those who fly them in the nation's service.<br />Yeah, the Nuri is such a dame isn't she?<br />Sempang holds a special place in my heart, as it was my first operational base after commissioning from the infantry-toned Royal Military College. This jewel too, stands under threat of hostile corporate takeover. I hope that it can be saved my some means of intervening grace.<br /><br />hobbit1964https://www.blogger.com/profile/04030529322509686268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6288619677784745586.post-90140020786722082172013-04-05T01:32:52.588+08:002013-04-05T01:32:52.588+08:00Hello Hobbit!

Who would forget such experiences when your dad was crewing! Oh....love the shadows on your Nuri pic. I don't know if you were subtly sending a message across? Someone not so famous once said "...where shadows fall, light is always nearby."

Including some I have never flown with. Reunions do that: they provide continuity. <br />Maybe there is some truth to the adage that old soldiers never die, but just fade away.hobbit1964https://www.blogger.com/profile/04030529322509686268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6288619677784745586.post-32806352142990882812013-04-04T20:13:10.127+08:002013-04-04T20:13:10.127+08:00Glad to see your kinship survives into retirement ...Glad to see your kinship survives into retirement and your wife and kids getting a feel of your office.mumuchihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11639055259683199675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6288619677784745586.post-88737564328945842892013-04-04T18:13:25.797+08:002013-04-04T18:13:25.797+08:00Dear Miss Placid Thoughts

My kids have been raving about LIMA but I've not had the opportunity to take them there yet. Anyway Sir, you have a beautiful family and they must be really proud of you. You are a great pilot. Know that.Placid Thoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00598928790756491194noreply@blogger.com
