I have learnt today, from the 214 Sqdn Association that Flt Lt Gallienne was not on board XD869 for its last flight. They are updating the Associations website and adding a photo of a very young me
It was a surprise to me, 50 years after the event, to discover a report that there ever were 7 people flying in a Valiant.
Working in this A/C when it was on the ground was problematic enough, particularly when trying to do the last After Flight of a night shift.
