A simple bit of professional pride by the Flt Eng, or was this perhaps a VIP flight?
Probably SOP in those days (see the photo below of one of 205/209's Sunderland's moored at China Bay with props nicely lined up) - and with me aboard definitely NOT a VIP flight! It was just a standard rotation of the SAR aircraft detached to China Bay
