Hi gents. Bit of a long shot but I'm looking for some contact details for Wes Zimmerman who was/is at Hill AFB flying the F16 with the reserves and flies for AA in his spare time

And who the hell am I you may ask

In a nutshell then, my name's Simon Hickey (which I believe is something amusing in yank-speak Rolling Eyes ), I'm a brit C130J driver and last saw Wes in about 1977 when I was 8 yrs old and he was on exchange (as was my father) in Australia flying the Mirage III. My folks have kept in touch with him by mail but don't have an email address or phone number for him. I'm taking a C130 out to Hill AFB for one night next week and would like to drop by and say hello.

If anyone has a contact number or email for him I'd really appreciate it (I can pass on my email or phone instead if required)

Thanks!

Hi Simon, Welcome to F-16.Net. Sure U didn't make a wrong turn to get here?? Wink Herc --> Viper, Herc ---> Viper... Very Happy

Not often we get a 'Fat Albert' driver signing on. So which of the squadrons do you fly for. 24 or 30? Do you know a load master by the name of Ray Jones?

Hi Asif
Thanks for the welcome Smile I'm on 30 but served on 24 some years back on the C130K.
I know Ray very well - how do you know him?

Hi Simon, We go back only a few years. Met Ray via his wife.. She used to work for the same employer as me in Chippenham.

Top Bloke! Got me a rid on your 'J' Sim and flight on a Puma Helicopter at one of his Sqn's summer barbecues.
