22 something years old in 1964 and 'seen active service with RNZAF'? Hmmmm
The RNZAF sent Venom's and Canberra's during the Malayan Emergency in the early 60's.

I can't quite beat Piano Man's picture, it needs to be on the water for starters... There should be a few out there that know where this is taken and unfortunately floatplanes aren't allowed on the closest lake

From outside the airport fence I took a couple of photographs of an Antonov (the one that "kneels") at Sharjah airport. Got a tap on the shoulder from airport security... was allowed to leave about 2 hours later after a very polite interview - without my film!!! I learn very quickly!!

"On 29 August 1954, this Fiji Airways Drover aircraft ran out of fuel and the pilot successfully ditched it on a reef alongside the island of Viwa. No one was injured."
