"Makes you proud to be British"
The title is paraphrasing the great Winston Churchill - who made the headline comment upon hearing of a soon to be resigning minister who was caught on Hampstead Heath with a Guardsman on the coldest night of the year...
"Blue Foxtrot duty weekend wasn't it?"
"yes sir"
"and wasn't it damned cold too?"
"Yes sir, possibly the coldest Saturday flying for a year sir"
"Very few in that Blue Foxtrot aren't there?"
"That's right sir, they depend on the kindness of others, but there were actually 3 on ground duty at the same time on Saturday afternoon sir, over 20 launches, and two crew at most times the rest of the weekend"
"Good show Breeze, - never in the field of crewing cold feet, have so many flights been launched by so few."
Thanks to all the students and other regular people who turn up to launch more than just to fly, March 12th weekend we, Blue Foxtrot, shall return, we will launch with a crosswind, we will launch in the heat, we shall launch in the Spring and the summer, we shall never... surrender.
