stewy Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Mmm.... Yes indeed Jock. Not what you'd expect. Although, it was more common in Afrika than elsewhere. Kind regards, Stewy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jock Auld Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I know the feeling, our 'deep latrine' at Basra Airport had very few floaters for a while, the whole Battery went down with the severe squirts. It was unpleasant to say the least! But not as bad as he had! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewy Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Thanks Jock. I've got another group to Art. Reg 146, that didn't anywhere near as bad as this. I'll have to get round to posting it. Stewy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
