Double Hydro,
we had two complete Begian crews attached to the RAF 'K' fleet at that time. One each on 24 and 30. They did not fly as a constitured crew but as individual crew members. I was the ALM Leader on 30 Sqn and I was fortunate to have Dirk van L as our Belgian loadmaster. A class act and all round nice bloke. I would have kept him if that had been possible.
The Belgian captain was Leon op de B. A great chap to go on route with and a bit of a 'character'. Happy times.
