Two Ferry Squadrons No's 147 and 167, had responsibility for the ferrying of RAF aircraft to all parts of the world
When the Ferry Wing was disbanded I flew one of the second "convoy" of Javelins on the 60 Sqn Ferry Flight detachment. The delivery was an interesting couple of weeks, but sadly marred by the loss of our leader on the Calcutta to Rangoon leg. I believe he (Ted Owen) was formerly at Benson as a Ferry Wing pilot.
