I was with 205 Sqdn from early 1945 to 1947. I was a wireless operator/air gunner and was known as "timber wood". After all these years does anyone remember me!!

As a child in April 1948 I travelled by RAF Sunderland from Singapore to Labuan by RAF Sunderland which I believe ran a weekly passenger and mail service to Borneo. I can still remember baked beans and tea in enamel mugs. Does anyone have any experience of this service? Does anyone know where in Labuan the Sunderlands landed? Thanks, Donald.
