Pleas could someone offer the full meaning of this mnemonic? I have looked through the thread. Don't bust a gut, it isn't really life threatening if I never get an answer

[Mikepaparomeo]

Return To Produce. In other words disassembled for spares/recycling

Reduce to Produce

[**I will not be recording individual callsigns due to an aircrew request**

Callsigns/serials correct according to PP/VR - I will always record the movements using observations by members whenever possible - these logs serve only as a record - info also obtained from Donny Radar Search Database]

Please note - I will only log the aircraft once per day - i'm not going to record the same jet going up 4 times a day with a different callsign and I would encourage members not to do so either - this isn't a movements topic, if you want to record the aircraft movements throughout the day please post it as a log on the Marham section as this topic is simply to log that the aircraft flew that day]
