Swift aka "Speedy"
In September
and October of 1953, the Vampires of 213 squadron tested the feasibility
of getting from the Canal Zone to South Africa using hand refuelling and
the dirt strips. Our destination was the South African Air Force station
at Swartkop in the Transvaal. We made it and spent a few days down there
before flying all the way back to North Africa. The exercise was called
"Quick Return".
