Derek de Kock (RhAF) Writes:-
In 1961 whilst a number of us were doing our training at RAF Abingdon to become Parachute Jumping Instructors, as part of our training, we went to Old Sarum to observe a heavy drop. On this occasion the drop was from a Beverley and consisted of a steel platform onto which was strapped a Land Rover and trailer. The Land Rover and trailer were mounted on a large # of vertical pipes with bits of wood sticking out of the pipe ends. These bits of pipe and wood were designed to absorb the shock by having the wood driven into the pipes when the contraption hit the ground. In addition there were a large # of what looked like kitbags which dropped out from under the platform which burst on landing also acting as shock absorbers. The whole contraption came out of the back of the Beverley and was suspended by 4 sixty foot .parachutes. It actually worked but one parachute failed to deploy .This made little difference to the actual landing speed but the parachutes failed to disconnect from the platform after landing and it would have been an interesting day if there had been a wind blowing on the ground.
The thing that got to me on that day was that the platform had to be recovered and was considered as a valuable and attractive item. I also discovered that the French did the same thing and just used bits of wood which were written off and everything dropped had to be useful to the troops on the ground. I took note of this fact and later the only things we had to recover were the parachutes and automatic opening devices used on free fall drops

Hi Eddy – passed this on to a mate with a son in the Brit Army; as you can see its much appreciated.

Closing this loop.
See below direct from OC 9 Para Sqn RE. I also had a reply from CRE Chief Royal Engineer 1 Div HQ as seen at CC below.
This sort of stuff is gold for them they probably have this archived, but nice to show the current incumbents.
This article will probably be seen by all 9 Para Sqn RE.
J L Clark | Maj | OC 9 Para Sqn RE | 23 Engr Regt (Air Asslt) Writes:-
That's fantastic.
Thank you very much for taking the time to forward this on.
It will come in very handy with a couple of pieces of work we are engaged in at the minute. The first, writing the latest round of the Sqn history, and the second, as we develop our theatre-entry capability as part of the Airborne Task Force.
Hope all' s well in Herford.
Thanks again.

Great to have this memory refreshed.
Many thanks to Ian Harper and all. Much appreciated. These bikes are
iconic in relation to my childhood and service years.
Ron Janson
(RhAF) writes:-
Thornhill had Matchless motorcycles. I rode one as
escort to a convoy from Thornhill to Gatooma (Gweru)
Dave Stone (RhAF) Writes:-
Saw the ''Matchless'' advert
of yore, which immediately brought back good memories.
I bid for one of
those venerable old 500cc ex BSAP 'thumpers' at a CMED sale in Gwelo circa
1964. I recall bidding against quite a tough looking lady who could have
kick started anything. I won the bidding at 40 pounds, which was a lot for
the time, but it was all together & in fair nick. It reliably ferried
me round the Midlands for a couple of years & took me to Durbs &
back. Wish I still had it, though I may have had to enlist a bit of help
with kick starting scene now !!
Ted Barnard (RhAF) Writes:-
Yes, the
Air Force did have 350cc Matchless motorcycles. All the Provost /
Doghandlers who joined in January 1964 learned to ride
them.
Rhett Gardener (RhAF)
Writes:-
Did you know??? ..... that the Shona word for a motorbike
is "mdududu" which was derived onomatopoeically from the sound of the
Matchless 500cc much favoured by the BSAP on rural patrols.
[My
source is Father George Fortune SJ who lectured me in Shona at the
University College of Rhodesia and Nyasaland.]

MERCY FLIGHT
ORAFs
picked up this note from a Rhodesian Railways Magazine dated January
1963:-
When Mr. Forbes Lewis. Chargeman Coppersmith, was taken
seriously ill at his home in Umtali an R.R.A.F. helicopter was despatched
from the capital lo take him from the Umtali Hospital to the Salisbury
Hospital. At the time of writing his condition was still
serious.
Does anyone recall this incident and perhaps the aircrew
will have details in their log books.

Bob Hattle Writes:-
Ian and I
are enjoying Kilimanjaro lager. Others here are Serengeti and Safari (what
else would they be called) all really good beers. Castle is also brewed
here by SAB and Tusker from neighbouring Kenya is also pretty good. A very
large variety of imported beers are readily available like Heineken and,
my favourite, Windhoek lager.
So anyone thinking of visiting us, you
won't go thirsty!

LEON KEYTER
Worked
with Leon in Muscat for many years and was surprised that he was not of
the same mould as the other racist former Rhodesians. Leon may have hade
his own prejudices but not once did he show them. A finer man I have yet
to see from amongst the Rhodesians who were in Muscat save for one or two.
May he find his peace with his Maker where he is and I wish to pass my
condolences to his family and say kwaheri good friend. D.Al Riyami

CENTRAL
AFRICAN AIRWAYS 'SKYBUS' SERVICE
John Mussell
(RhAF) Writes:-
Regarding the photo of
Ken Hanson buttering up passengers on the Skybus, the passenger on the
left looks like Bob Woodward. Possible confirmation is that he seems to be
wearing an Air Force tie, but not being in good focus, it could be that I
am mistaken. Also the fellow under the captain's left armpit has a
familiar face. Perhaps the photo was posed and the photographer (maybe one
of ours from New Sarum) grabbed a few locals from both sides of the runway
to act as passengers.
John Redfern
(Rhodesian Army) Writes:-
I wonder if any of
ORAFS readers remember Air Rhodesia's "Super 66" tours in
1979-80?
As I recall, one could fly in a Viscount from Salisbury to
Vic Falls, spend one night in the Vic Falls hotel, then fly on to Kariba
(I can't remember if it was an overnight stop - I think it was) and back
to Salisbury. The ticket cost R$66. This was excellent value for
money.

I met Dare in 1979
when I was transferred to Rio Tinto Management Services in Johannesburg,
we became good friends. I have always been besotted with anything that
flew, and here was someone that had flown Spitfires! If I remember
correctly they were the last operational Spitfires in the world. After I
left Johannesburg we continued our fortnightly chaps on the 'phone and
then one day I couldn't get hold of him - I'll miss him! RIP
Bruffies!

ORAFs: LEST WE FORGET
ORAFs would like to make
special thanks to all those that found the time to send in answers

reason why I could not find him on the ORAFs nominal roll is that his

RHODESIAN SCHOOL BADGES
David
Livingstone
Rex Taylor (RhAF)
Writes:-
I went to David Livingstone school in the 1940’s, it was
during WWII and the “threat” of aerial bombing was taken seriously. I
remember the “air raid drill” we had to walk, -NOT run, - to some trenches
on the Livingstone Avenue side of the soccer fields. Over THIRTY years
later I was in the Air Force Photo Interpretation Section and looked at
aerial photos of the school through the stereoscope. Although large trees
then covered the area, one could still make out the outlines of the 1940
trenches! Looking back, the disciplined drill was probably a show of
patriotism and solidarity with the citizens of London rather than any real
danger. At that time Germany was poised to invade Britain and “The Blitz”
was in progress.
In the 1970’s I always made it known that if any
new boyfriend brought either of my daughters home late, another shallow
ditch in the chicken run would have to be filled in! Aerial photography
would not locate those trenches because a multi-roomed out-house now
occupies the site of the old chicken run and some low
mounds!

Thanks for clarifying the location. My original posting
stated what was written on the back of the photo. I will pass this onto

Peter Marchussen was Copper 43 and Peter Walton was Copper

Graham Andrews Writes:-
sent the
picture of the PRAW pilots training in Masvingo to my mate Peter Walton
who in turn sent it on to his mate Peter Marchussen. They were both PRAW
pilots, COPPER 44 and COPPER 45.
Peter &
Janet Marchussen reply to Graham
No that picture was not at
Masvingo it was at Thornhill we went on a course there. Why I am sure is
the hunters could not land at Masvingo and wouldn’t have a reason to
either. That might be you, I can’t really recognise you or
me???

HARRY SMITH
Mike Hamence (RhAF) Writes:-
Funny ol'
world, as Derek Field (RhAF) would say...
I last saw Harry Smith at LGW
(London- Gatwick Airport) very early in the morning of November 21, 1986.
I was in transit to Gibraltar from Jeddah.
Harry, together with John
Ludgater (He who managed to collect 180-plus chunks of 'Mini Golf' when it
detonated prematurely under his Cessna FTB337 'Linx', and an Affretair DC8
Captain - his name escapes me, but in the mid-80s, he had a video outlet
next to the cinema in Avondale Shopping Mall) were transiting to
Amsterdam, where Len George was clearing damage to a DC8.
Well,
aviators do meet up all over the world!

NOTE
FROM ORAFs
My sincere thanks to all those that send in articles
and reply to the many questions asked. Be assured your support is greatly
appreciated.
I loved John Graham's comment regarding incorrect
information being recorded on the back of the photo of the PRAW Aircrew.
ORAFs was recently warned about a copyright infringement on a scanned copy
of a photo sent to me - I was expected to know who had taken the
photo!
I would like to advise all that ORAFs still remains
independent of other associations. I work with most Rhodesian Association
but there are some where there are to many rules and regulations for
ORAFs. ORAFs will be cutting back on the support of research teams, I
believe the Facebook and other social networks are a better beat than
ORAFs
