This was a genius idea putting Windsor in a training film, so often these are boring and bland experiences leading people to switch off and not learn the intended subject. This however was the opposite, easily entertaining enough to keep everyone engaged.

Remember on 14Sqn in Lossiemouth around 2008 when the RAF got issued the Hilux fleet, someone packed up in a yellow zone in the early hours and didn't check before opening the doors. Lad couldn't find the Hilux so walked back to ops. Later that morning someone found the Hilux, bent like a horse shoe around the HAS door frame and the concrete blast wall! Cant remember ever seeing that lad again on sqn!

I have nothing but the fondest memories of working with him and many other creatives up at the Chalfont Studios. BTW It still exists today and after 35 years I still work for them!

Yes and No. They could never withstand a direct hit by a PGM. But they protect from near misses, lighter munitions. Special Force missions against them are dramatically harder. And when you have 40 HAS but only 20 aircraft at a base it means the enemy has to deploy twice as much force. They've still got a lot of utlility today.
