My old AEO had just left the RAF and had joined the Aden Levies, as an officer. He was there at the pull out and he descibed how military, both Army and RAF were arriving at the airfield in vehicles and just handing him the keys. He selected a couple of the best for his own use and the rest were commandeered by his unit.
There was no mention of air strikes.
