The Harrier pilots used to camp at our place in the 60's, then they would visit now and then with the Harrier jets hovering right in front of our veranda, waggling fingers at us from the cock pit, grinning from ear to ear.
I heard that the Harriers were discouraged from landing at the airstrip. When one took off it blew down 3 homes and a restaurant and burnt 2 foot deep holes in the runway. Old man John Grief told me that story.
