I remember sitting in my back garden in Bedfordshire watching the test flights for the Harrier going up and down. It was so strange to see an airoplane behaving like that. My husband was one of the electronics engineers working on it.

We do a lot of resettlement training for Forces people and have had a lot of guys from RAF Cottesmore recently which is very very sad.
