If anyone is interested, I have just finished putting my late fathers’ photos from when he was in the RAF on my website. These cover his training & stationing at Cranwell, Lincs and in Malaya. There is a lack of labelling in the albums from which they came, so any comments/information would be most welcome. The photos have been left original with no photoshop’ing.
Some of the photos have already been put on the forum ages ago, so sorry if I am repeating myself a bit.

A fantastic collection, thank you very much for sharing them.

John,
My father only spoke of being stationed at Changi & KL so I assume it is from there. As for the a/c involved I assumed Hastings but this created a lot of discussion on the forum a while back.

Hi Shorty
The supply drop on Page 1, those are from the inside of a HP Hastings, presumably some of those pics shown are from Kuala Lumpur and maybe Penang or Butterworth.
Some of the guys from my forum http://www.activeboard.com/forum.spark?forumID=46291 may recognise the Malay photos I will place a link there to see if anyone recognises anything
