I have some information on Alan Garside but not that much I'm afraid. He went straight from Operational Conversion Unit around June 1959 to fly Hunters with 66 Squadron at Acklington in Northumberland.

Number 66 Squadron was disbanded on 30 September 1960 which is when he moved to 111 Squadron at Wattisham to fly Lightnings. While with 111 Squadron he was seconded to 56 Squadron in June 1963 where he joined the Firebirds aerobatic team flying the solo display slot at the Paris Air Show.

Hope this helps

Peter
