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.

This Dakota was delivered to the RAF as KN564 in May 1945. Ten years later she was delivered to the Royal Rhodesian Air Force as SR157, later RRAF708. With the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland was dissolved in 1963, the Dakotas and Pembrokes of the RRAF were transferred to the Northern Rhodesia Air Wing which became the Zambia Air Force after independence.
