My one and only flight in a Hastings was from Changi to Butterworth when I was doing my bit in confrontasi!On arrival at Butterworth a movements officer boarded and said "what are you lot doing here!!"
There were a couple of Javelins parked near transit flight pan I assume they were 60 squadron and had missiles fitted.As for Avpin I spent two years on Hunters (Aden)and do not recall any major Avpin incidents?
