I seem to remember Sultan Qaboos Bin Said shot the reigning Sultan during a parade at Salalah. I know the old Sultan was a problem from my tours on 152 Sqn in 1959/61 and 105 Sqn in 1964/66. I also remember the shot Sultan was picked up by an RAF Britannia and flown to the UK where he died in hospital in London shortly after.
