ricardian,

I know something of the provenance of at least one of 6o Sqn's Pembrokes.

When in the 1950's my father took over as flt commander of 267 Sqn in KL amongst the steeds he inherited were several Pembrokes. One of these he used to collect my older brother from Singapore, he having flown there from the UK en route to KL, to join us for summer hols. I think dad had to kiss hands with the AoC, who was stationed in Singapore, for permission for that flight.

One of those Pembrokes, WV701 C.1, it appears, was ultimately shipped to 60 Sqn in Berlin.
