• Pretty sure it is - origin of the Lincolnshire Poacher signal?

    I helped at a careers event last year and was next to the RAF recruitment stand. Noticed the pilot was wearing an 84 Squadron t under his flying suit, so had a chat about Akrotiri. I got round to asking if there was still funny black gliders about the place, and although he didn't confirm (or deny), I was amazed to find out later it's still very much in service.

    Went to Duxford a few years back to see the SR71 and the U2-C, really stunning to see close up. Much smaller than I was expecting!

  • Oh yeah - the section of that Iraqi super gun in the background was great to see (and unexpected!). Another nutty project going on in plain sight.
