Thank you to those who found the time to respond regarding the South Arabian Air Force. The locally-based "Attack Squadron" took delivery of 8 Jet Provost T Mk52s between August 1967 and January 1968, and were supplemented by a further four Strikemaster Mk.81s in August 1969. The surviving 11 airframes were sold to Singapore in 1974 when the air arm was re-equipped with Soviet-built aircraft. Although I don't know anyone who worked or flew the Jet Provosts, Airwork Ltd had been awarded the original maintenance contract but was not invited to apply again when the new regime came into being. It would be interesting to learn who would have been involved?
