You chaps are funny
A great bit of video... sadly I have done my last flight on the VC10 (27 May in fact), so you wont see me on the news.
Great to see the chaps getting some recognition though, as 101 work very very hard!

Yeah, what's your next adventure Tonks? Of course it'll be between just you and the rest of us. We won't tell a soul.
