A picture from my late fathers collection. He was a pilot on 60 Squadron at the time based at RAF Wildenrath. This was his second time on 60 Sqn having been on them years before flying Meteors and Javelins. After disbanding in Apr 1968 in Singapore on Javelins, 60 reformed at Wildenrath in West Germany taking over the role of the RAF Germany Communications Squadron. I am not sure if he was flying this aircraft at the time. WV736 was delivered to the RAF in Nov 1954 and SOC on 23 May 1977. Retired to Catterick fire school and perished in 1979.
