There was trainee pilot called Marshall who graduated as a Sergeant Pilot on No 6 Post war Pilots Course at RAAF Point Cook in December 1951. He was posted to fly Dakota's from Richmond I think. A cool laconic character. Average height with an Errol Flynn type moustache. Don't know where he went after leaving the RAAF circa 1956

Centaurus, your memory amazes me! If I have half as good a memory you have when I reach your age I will be very happy!

Tailey.

JL has a memory few of us could come close to anytime. Aviator extraordinaire!
There are a couple of other knights too of his era who occasionally post on here who are also well worth taking note of.
May their posts keep coming.
Cheers.
JO.

Hi Thanks for the responses.

I have just acquired a Jeppessen Computer Manual published 1958
with F/O Marshall C/O MMA Perth handwritten on the cover.
It also contains a few pages of I assume his handwritten notes.

It would be nice to publish a short history of his aviation career when the manual gets displayed online in my collection.
