And it only seems like yesterday when we were given the day off school to watch the first one come in at RAF Cottesmore.

Day off school eh, cant complain there

Hard to think of Cottesmore as a Tonka base these days.

There you go, two more paints that need adding, TTTE and TWCU;
oh btw IX was at Honington when I woz there!
Their HAS site was called 'Gotham City'; and IIRC the 'boss' used to drive round in the 'Batmobile', a Mini with IX's 'Bat' logo painted on it in the same fashion. Us Bucc types thought that was very twee, and 'zapped' it on just about every available opportunity.
Honington was pretty full back then, 3 Bucc units, 208,12 and OCU,
plus TWCU and IX's Tonka's.
