Notes:

Rare 1982 'wing view' photo taken from RAAF '33 Flight' Boeing 707-338C A20-624, departing Butterworth Malaysia, for Sydney via Darwin. Air Base Butterworth is visible to the left of the Pratt and Whitney JT3D-3B engines. The passengers included the departing XO and SEngO of 3 Squadron. Hence the rare 'Escort' by 3 Sqn Mirage IIIO A3-24. (A3-95 was formated off the Port wing.) A20-624 also flew to Butterworth from Canberra on 22May2008, taking personnel to Commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the RAAF at Butterworth. (A20-624 will be retired at RAAF Richmond on 28Jun2008). Low res photo.
