This picture is in one of my late dad's log books when he was a pilot on 64 Sqn. He is flying the Javelin FAW9 XH707 / F over Malaysia with a 45 Sqn Canberra B15 and a 20 Sqn Hunter FGA9 coded A. It was also used as a front cover from the RAF publication 'Air Clues' and has the following caption. FAR EAST TRIO. Three 'RAF types' of the Far East Air Force are seen on a special formation flight along the Malaysian coast. They are a Javelin of No 64 Squadron, whose duties at Tengah have been taken over by the Mk 6 Lightnings of No 74 Sqn ; a Canberra of No 45 Sqn ; and a Hunter of No 20 Sqn.
