RAF Shackletons in Indonesian Confrontation
I'm researching the part played by RAF Shackletons during the Indonesian Confrontation of 1963-65. The squadrons involved were 205, resident at RAF Changi, Singapore, reinforced by detachments of 203, 204 and 210 Squadrons from Ballykelly, Northern Ireland, plus 201 Squadron at St Mawgan. Op HAWKMOTH maritime recce sorties were flown from both Changi and RAF Labuan, Borneo. I would be very interested to hear from anyone involved, and would be particularly grateful for photos of Shackletons at Labuan during the campaign. I can be contacted at: [email protected]
