Yes, for CinC NEAF, probably XP444 as mentioned much earlier in this thread.
Must have been the Argosy I flew in.

I was returning from domcol leave in Southern Rhodesia and I was put on JJ's Argosy at Salisbury. The plan was for me to catch an Ascot from Aden back to the UK.

I think that JJ was flying it because the port mainwheels took a shortcut across the grass whilst we were taxing out. At Nairobi I was offloaded, to be replaced by topsoil, according to the rumours. Then I had to wait at Eastleigh for four days until they could get me on a British Commonwealth Britannia back to the UK.
