A particularly heart stopping photo of a Hawker Hunter of the Sultan of Oman 's Air Force beating up the base
at Salalah. The Sultan employed mercenary Brit pilots to fly Hunters and Strikemasters to help put down the
Dhofar rebels in the south. They clearly were bored from time to time! The rebellion ended in 1976, the same
year I visited Oman .
