Just found this forum and registered – hence the gap in the posts.

This thread has particular interest to me as my father was a pilot with 267 Sqdn and flew the three dakotas mentioned.

He flew with Joe Neville. In fact in one of the first links of this thread http://www.centercomp.com/cgi-bin/dc3/story?1434 my father gets a mention (as does the email conversations I had with Joe).

I have some photos taken during that time and also all my fathers logbooks. I also have some photos of Joe smoking a rather large cigar.
