My father Dick Skelley (1938 -2011) flew Canberras with 16 Squadron in the late 1950s and I am keen to get any pictures of him + the squadron at that time. I know he was on the front of an Air Clues magazine at this time, when a Goose came through the nose cone of an aircraft and he struggled back to Laarbruch (his navigator Mike freeman had been knocked conscious - not on the beer you understand!).
The other thing is I now live in Sharjah in the UAE. Unfortunately my Dad passed before I could bring him here, but he did tell me he landed here on his way to bombing ranges and Aden in Yemen. Again any information about such deployments from Germany would be really good.
thanks in advance.
