RAAF Butterworth, Malaysia late 1960s.

Air servicing Flight engineer ordered 2 split pins Pt No 26FP/2.

New 'puter system in supply control flight ordered same but should have run a check and the order should have been 28FP/2.

Few days pass and aircraft (special flight) arrives from Singapore with our 2 26FP/2 Shackleton main planes.
