    Hi there, Well someone from my favourite part of the world!! I flew in and out of Bardufoss quite a few times during the winters of the late 70's and 80's. Magnificent Country and wonderful people, the booze was a little pricey but the local moonshine was damn good!! :whistling: I would move there tomorrow given the chance!!

    There's a huge pool of experience here on the forum, so have fun.

    Just wondering - where you working with Clockwork back then? It just fits the time of year...;-)

    Yep ... Clockwork, attached to 45 from Logs ... but mostly with 42 down south in Andalsnes until the move north for the big Ex ... then the Hercy bird home (At the time I used to think that Bardufoss was 5" up the Ars~hole of the world, the winds were a bit chilly) ... unless we ended up putting the BV's etc into storage. That used to get us a couple of weeks extra LOA. Ah, funny how you always remember the good times ...

    I work in the radio repair shop just across the airfield. Nearest neighbor to the 339 and 337 sqn's! Hopefully I'll start in the Bell dock just after x-mas! That's gonna be great!
