JWS flight"
Hello Fred. Yes I do remember the JWS and one trip I had to make is very firmly stuck in my memory bank. I had to take a team down to recover a Sioux which had suffered 'engine failure', but in fact the throttle linkage had come adrift and therefore no engine. It had landed almost in the middle of the sportsfield and the only way to get to it was to drive straight accross the field, so we did! We left tyre tracks about a foot deep, and believe me we were not too popular. We got the Sioux back to 75 and after some discussion the throttle was reconnected and I believe an SI resulted. Great times though, despite the hassle!! Take care and be good.
