Re(2): 33 SQUADRON 30th ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATIVE SERVICE FOR BOEING 707 A20-103 AND CREW IP: 124.187.82.130 Posted on 31/10/2021 at 06:00:55 AM by Lance Haslewood
Thanks Bob. There will be some more pics taken by RAAF which will be put onto the Defence network shortly. I'll post the link when it's provided.
I, too, was at Richmond on that fateful day. I had received a phone call advising that a 707 had crashed, so I immediately rang the CO who was unaware. I turned-on the radio and it was on the news.
Such a long time ago but it seems just yesterday.
Al Gwynne's daughter was at the Amberley service as were family of Jon Fawcett. I understand that Al's wife attended the Richmond service.
