Air force bases in California, Bermuda, Malta are visited on the journey to Lagos, Nigeria, where colorful Independence celebrations attended by Princess Alexandra take place. After a week the men fly home buying gifts at Aden, seeing palm trees at Cocos Islands, passing over Perth in formation, and back to Amberley.
