Well I never, a similar thing happened in Sept. 66 when a Breguet Provence(one of those 4 engined double deckered thingy's) diverted in with a split exhaust manifold. I did have a look around the lower cargo deck, but the only thing of any interest was a nice sailing dinghy. It night stopped after repair and departed early morning en-route Tahiti. I don't think there were any "women of pleasure" on board or else one of you lot would be bragging about it now!!
Thankyou savio for posting those photo's.
Here is a 'dodgy' photo' of two AAC Sioux(XT173 & 174) that were delivered in from Aden on the 5th Feb '66. I left for the UK in early May and I never ever saw them fly. Any idea as to what Regt/Flight/Sqdn they belonged to and what happened to them? Can anyone confirm that they did eventually get airborne?
