January 05 1965 I left LHR on posting to Changi also by British Eagle Brit., transitting and departing IST on 06 January; In 1990 I was working for a cargo company on contract to Alitalia, and during an after duty soirée
, we, the crew, were swinging the lantern whilst sitting on our sandbags, I mentioned this flight and my Captain, Jack, seemed interested in it. Next time we flew together, Jack had one of his old Log Books which showed he had operated as First Officer on the IST-BOM leg of the flight I was on. Great guy, our Champagne Jack.
