your best contact - if I can find an address for you - would be a chap by the name of Colin Richardson, an old SOAF hand who was IIRC, also on 8 at the time.
He was instrumental in procuring a memorial plaque which was unveiled in Muscat in December 2005 by the UK CDS. As a (less old) SOAF hand myself, I was privileged to be at the unveiling.....
I have a picture of the plaque somewhere, I'll try and post it....

Edited to add:
Colin wrote a book about Masirah - "Masirah - Tales from a Desert Island" which was published by Pentland Press. If I can't find an address, they may be able to help.
