Thanks Gary, spent a lot of my teenage years at Thorney, in fact I might even been part of a (very muddy) group of ATC cadets and aviation archeogists who tried to retrieve that engine from the mud, via a 33 sqn Puma......that never made it! Never could trust that shower!! :lol:

Thanks for that Garry, it's literally at the end of my road, so that's really interesting!

Thanks
