| Tales from the RAF
I'm showing a new erk round the Lincoln, its a cold day and when the NAAFI wagon had been, we took our coffee and wads up into the nose out of the wind and I carried on my instruction on a what do and not to do basis. We finished our break and before I could stop him, the new lad threw his coffee dregs down what looked like a drain in the floor. I shut my eyes and sure enough, there was a bang and a thud and a ten man dinghy popped out of the wing root. The look alike drain was the flotation switch to release the dinghy in case of a ditching at sea. I had to put him on a charge and he was confined to camp for one week and had to pay £5 towards the cost of rehousing the dinghy!!!! Well it did look like a drain.
