After I left the RAF I had worked for Airwork East Africa at Thornhill AFB in Zimbabwe for 10 months as a civvy on the Hawk T60's.
When I resigned from that job I flew from Thornhill up to Harare in a Viscount of Air Zim - nice flight

When I arrived in Zim originally I had flown down to Thornhill from Harare in a Zim Air Force CASA 212 with a flight looey pilot and an Officer Cadet as Co.

I flew back into LGW in a Air Zim 707,being impressed how green southern england was - I did miss the outstanding Gliding conditions though
