GP CAPT DAN NEEDHAM REMEMBERS A HILARIOUS ‘WHEEZE’ INVOLVING UNORTHODOX USE OF A METEOROLOGY BALLOON AT A PRESTIGIOUS JOINT SERVICE DINNER
As a young pilot, Roger Dimmock survived a Sea Hawk crash at the 1958 Farnborough Air Show, and went on to become a rear admiral. His death in 2014 brought back vivid memories for me of 1970, when he was a Buccaneer pilot and a senior naval officer at Honington in Suffolk.
