There are a surprising number of audiobooks on there actually, including a lot of military history. Very much enjoyed the book, brought back a few happy memories!

25 years ago today we said “I do”. Some thought we were crazy, they were right. Some told us they’d see us after the divorce, let’s continue to make them wait. You’re the person I want to screw things up with. You’re the person I want to share adventures with. You’re kinda ok 😉

From my first flight with @Team_Luftwaffe to my last, 11 years later. I don’t think I’ve changed a bit…

The video is cool with the sun just in the right position. As for the photo, I’ve never seen anything quite like it before. It looked like someone had dropped something into the layer of clouds and caused ripples on the surface.

RIP Gen Jackson, who gave me my favourite quote from the jump-seat. Baghdad, 2003. Threat area departure (accelerate to the end of the runway at 12 feet and zoom-climb). From over my left shoulder: “Bwaaah! It goes up like a fucking lift!”

One of the major hubs for the airlift in West Germany was RAF Wunstorf. It is now the home of Air Transport Wing 62, and me 😎🛫

The Berlin Airlift – one of the largest humanitarian operations ever conducted – ended 75 years ago this week. In 15 months, British aircraft flew a combined distance of over 30 million miles and spent equivalent to 24 years in the air. Find out more 🔗 raf.mod.uk/news/articles/raf…

I’m hoping so in the fullness of time. It’s the King’s decision ultimately, although I’d imagine that’s something he has delegated…

That’s a work in progress. At the moment, no, but I have applied for the King’s permission to do so. These things take time though.

Our baby graduated from the University of Exeter today and Tempest Photography captured the sheer joy on his face as he proudly crossed the stage. 🥰🎓🧬🧪🧫
