I think that this ferry was to Cyprus (probably from Gan), and that the excessive time in reheat resulted in the pilot (from 41 Sqn I think) being court martialed at Coningsby. I believe that on day 1 of the proceedings the defence lawyer asked to see the 'damaged' engine only to be told it was still installed on an aircraft. This resulted in the charge being thrown out - perhaps someone else can remember more details?
