I remember seeing a Hawk,XX154?, at Luqa in the summer of 1975. It was doing Hot trials and I think it also flew out of Cairo.
I didn't work on them but handled quite a few through VASF at Kinloss. We had a detachment of nine, from Valley,(no groundcrew)for a week and the most striking thing I remember, apart from their serviceability, was the toolkit for the det ------A screwdriver and an open ended spanner! All nine aircraft flew twice a day for three days and all that was required was fuel,oil and oxygen.
Compare that to a det of four JPs for the same length of time and they came with a complete shift of linies armed with portable toolkits and a large box of spares.
