On the 8th December 1964, shortly after we had left our refuelling drogue on a Lightning from Leconfield. we touched down at Marham in Valiant XD815 and found that the aircraft had been grounded.

We then drove down to Honington, our home base, which was having the runway resurfaced.

I believe that this was the last Valiant tanker operation and there was probably a grateful Lightning pilot for that.
