Another late reply;
Tartan Giant;
I sent your photograph to Captain Harry A' Court one of the original Malayan Airways pilots ( now aged 83 ) and he says the pilot is Pod Hodnett who joined in 1948. Pod did not stay long but returned to England to rejoin the RAF. His name is mentioned in " Chance Encounters " on page 25 . Harry could not identify the hostess and this rather surprised me. I'm sorry I could not get this to you earlier but E-mailing when you are travelling is a bit hard and especially so for someone who is not very good at it . Regards,

PS, Tried to send you a Private Message but it would not go through.
