A photo from my late fathers collection. On the back it has 'The Boss' This is the squadron commanders aircraft from 60 Squadron RAF based at Tengah in Singapore. My father was a pilot on the squadron and this was the last front line squadron in the RAF flying the Meteor. The last operational flight in the RAF on the Meteor was on 17 Aug 1961 with the last ever flight by a front line Meteor the next day 18 Aug 1981 when my father flew solo taking WS785 the short hop from Tengah to Seletar for scrapping.

My late father started his advanced flying training on 25 February 1953 with 203 AFS based at RAF Driffield in Yorkshire.

On landing before he had cleared the runway there was a big bang and he ended up on the grass. On running clear and looking back he saw he had been hit by Meteor T7 WL413 which took off his tail. WL413 was delivered on 24 Jul 1952. Repaired after accident. Last noted Farnborough 24 Feb 1966.
