Edit - Have nearly finished scanning the photos from Dad's collection - so here are a few more for your enjoyment. The photos I posted originally are still here in case you missed them! As before - any memories / comments more than welcome!
Thanks again.

Hi folks
Have recently been scanning in some of my Father's photo collection for the sake of preservation and in order to send to an author. Dad was an Instrument Tech on XV Squadron at RAF Cottesmore from 1958 - 1962 and got the photos along the way.
I thought you'd like to see them - and if anyone has any memories from this time I know he'd love to hear them!
Enjoy!
Thanks
Gareth
