An early colour scheme with white Sargeant Fletchers (?) and no Sqn markings. I think that this was 6 Sqn in Cyprus in Sep 69. The aircraft at that time belonged to Eng Wing and we were allocated them to fly when available. As there were (I think 3 by then) several users the Sqn markings were not displayed - much to the chagrin of the Sqns. This system only lasted a short time as we didn't even have dedicated ground crew. By '70 I think the aircraft had reverted to the Sqns as had the ground crew. A try at centralised servicing that was doomed to failure as we were expected to be off base for several months each year.
