About Me

  I live in Gloucester  which is a lovely place to live. I run a website for enthusiasts of ex military fire appliances which now has over 200 members worldwide. I own an ex Royal Air Force Range Rover Carmichael TACR2a (Truck airfield Crash Rescue Mk 2a) which was based at RAF Lossiemouth for all of its service life. I bought it in 2001 straight from active service and it is fully operational and equipt as 'in service'. For further infromation please visit:

This is billy no mates at the group site at billing. Give clive,Walter and john a pat on the back at continually attending these venues when no one else makes an effort. (end of rant,lonely and bored. I spend ages getting a pitch and wish people would attend )

Walt, you mentioned scanning in documents. Such a shame you're not closer I'd have happily scanned some in. That said I've two manuals for the TACR2 if you want them - just send me an email clara@tacr2.co.uk because I can't find your address (owing to being at work right now).

Richard, This is great news. I have been wondering where this had gone, even if it still exsisted?
Now I know. Is it as it was in service? Or stripped?
Fantastic!

Hi Walt

I was just looking through your photo album of Commando 6x4 and came across the Humberside Airport Commando OFW 751 M.

I don't know if this is of interest to you, but it is presently in my yard under going a from the ground up retoration and will hopefully be back on the road by late summer.

regards

Richard

Hello James, I have some pictures that a friend took a RAF Benson of the tool kits carried there but nothing with any detail. I have a list of standard items carried in a folder which I will scan for you. Is this any help?

can you help out with one thing. I've got a tacr2 tool box from steve shirley and after photos off the tool layout in side this is the plywood box that they had from new?
