Jaganpvs,

Of course ! The Wing Commander's Harvard - FE965 ! (Full story p.158 #3142). As I remember, we simply struck it off and handed it to the local RAF RSU to sort out. So did we burn it at Golittatu (your Colitatlu) ?
(I'm the C.O. of the Unit, and I don't know (?)

Were they our chaps at the bonfire (could have been the Army at Porcal - did my photographer - for he must have been that - for the original VV photo with wing spray tanks is a professional job, I have a blown-up, framed, about 12x9 inches, and the detail's perfect - scrounge a lift on Army MT up there to snap the fun ? We'll never know now.

Begumpet's ATC Tower (I suppose) looks fine in the photo (and it takes you back, you can almost feel the heat - look at the shadows under the trees and posts and see where the sun is !

Cheers, Danny
