During my detachment at RAF Nicosia in early 1958 one of my good friends also flew the Levant Comm Sqn Meteors. He was a Beverley second pilot who was totally p****d off with his job. Luckily he managed to get off the Beverley and on to Hunters in early 1959. He was eventually posted to a Squadron in Germany and was very happy flying Hunters. Unfortunately he was lost over the North Sea and there was no real evidence about what happened. We just moved on as it was not an unusual occurrence in those days.
