Very nice. Wonder how many Peter had hands on or through his crew while he was present? Lots of value sitting right there...

Interesting Q BAR. But I don't remember seeing a Mk1 in my UK service. No doubt there were still some floating around, seemingly lost within the system. We knew about them of course but while there were plenty of Mk2's doing the rounds the majority were Mk3's. The Mk2's that went through the big workshops were all converted to 2/1 spec. Hence we always had a drawer full of Mk2 range and azimuth drums
