Re your post no 12, at that time I had never been further east than Amman, and that only a fleeting visit. Malaysia, Singapore etc. came later. I actually took over a flight from Flt Lt Richardson. The squadron commander was Sqn Ldr Alderdyce, the wing was eventually commanded by Wg Cdr Thynne, a navigator recently arrived from Thor missiles and the big boss was Air Cdre Porter. Other flight commanders I remember were Hill, Browne, McNabney, Barton, Hyam, Read.
