Hi Jono,

Thanks for the great piccies, good to see the R.A. cap badge. Dad was 88th Field, Dunquerque then Singapore and onto the Burma Railway.

I doubt the last one was N.I., far too sunny :D .

Regards, Norman.

That last photo wont be NI they are in tropical trousers and there are palm trees in the background so somewhere warm, Hong Kong, Cyprus or Belize are more likely

Great photographs. The last picture shows the 'white' diffs very well, a bit more evidence for Hibbo.

south coast of the island, nice photo with the unitary radio stations fitted, never seen the top antenna mounting position used before. I agree about the 109 it looks a lot like there is some type of plating fitted under it, but what's in the big box on the back?

Dont know, but it reminded me of a s3 109 I parked next to at Duxford show ages back and that had similar, he was describing it as a N.I. Panther, but whatever that implies I dont know.
I suppose it could just be a radio and or kit it security lock box?
