A small correction to the narrative......it was not Wing Commander Clarence 
D'Souza, but
Wing Commander Clarence D'Lima.  Clarence was the pilot for Prime Minister 
Morarji Desai.  He was my first cousin.  He sacrificed his life to save that of 
the Prime Minister when he had to make a forced landing of the YAK Russian 
aircraft in Jorhat, Assam in 1977.
