Inflatable Tanks

Post by Batfink »

Just wondered if anybody knows who looks after inflatable tanks these days? I'm looking for a few for an exercise later this year, but official channels are drawing blanks - any help gratefully received!

Cheers

Yep, the Cambrian's had borrowed it and left it out in the high winds. The reports said they lost 1. If I remember they sent the OTC out to recover them - it appears student ruperts are good for something afterall :lol:
