Question 101 Sdn Vulcans in South America May 60

In 1960 we took two of our Vulcans to support the SA Independence celebrations visiting Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia and venezuela. One a/c was XH481, can anyone remember the other one, I think it was XA903. Although (I have lots of notes and pics, thanks to NBS R80 film!) but have lost this info. Also we had a close call due to an engine fault 'twixt BA & Montevideo, can anyone remember the incident. Pat Summers was the Crew Chief. I am doing a fund raising event for XH558, and welcome any memory joggers.
