Paul,

I found the photos. Seventeen shots of four Tempests and four shots of an IAF Hunter in a hangar.

Not in my writing but inscribed on the envelope and on the back of the photos by a Tempest 'expert' some years ago:-

'Poona circa 1977 on the envelope'.

There appears to be four Tempests fuselages parked around in the long grass. Written on the back of the photos are respectively 'HA457', '586', '634' and '591'.

I also have another shot of a Tempest at Bradley Air Museum in the US which I assume is ex IAF.

Peter
