The photo was not from Blues&Twos As the duty watch commander on the day of the photo this was passed to me from the airport file, to the station file.sorry for offence that this may have caused..

No problem, seems that it was a mix up in airport. I took this picture a number of years ago while on work experience, as station officer took me for a spin while carrying out afternoon checks. I have the same picture on blues-twos alongside the ones i took that day. Thanks for replying and sorry if i caused offence by bringing this up

No worries John it was me that took you in the truck for the inspection on the days you spent with us.

Added by Robert Ewing on 11 December 2008.
I am really sorry, please accept my sincere apologies for bringing it up, and cheers for the spin.
