Stan Evans Review of John Daines Zoom forum presentation on 14th July 2021 and reminiscence of TRT in action:
John Daines was brilliant . Not only the very professional way he gave the presentation but the many items of news I did not know. In particular those related to TRT in the war. Also Lyons running successfully a war effort factory.
One memory of TRT was in the middle of a nasty engineering fault on Leo I he came down and quite rightly wanted to know our progress. We had been down 3 hours by then.
He suggested you go into the work shop , have a cup of tea,switch off for 5 mins then recap the problem
Needless to say it worked. we were up again in 20 mins. A lesson I used many many times later on in my career
So I repeat John gave a brilliant presentation.
Of course feeding my ego he points an arrow at your truly at the Leo I engineers control desk in the section Maintenance
