    I say, those blighters Jerry are getting damn cunning with their aircraft disguise these days; turns out it's a ruddy Dornier after all!! Could have sworn it was Fokker, what with Messy Schmidt as the pilot. No wonder Sqdn. Ldr. Meanley has questioned my spotting abilities. Nil desperandum Skip., that all-round good-egg tail-end Charlie will cop for that fokker on the next sortie!!

    Cheery bye for now.

    Not a hope! Following the introduction of REG (Range Extension GUV), we are now looking at the development of ADG (Air Defence GUV) which is proposed to be fitted with a range of munitions such as Phoenix and Sparrow missiles together with AAA. This will give a spread of defensive measures from Beyond Visual Range up to the old fashioned shoot'em down when they get within range. Should all of this fail we do have lots of coal to throw if they get really close in on viaducts!
