Churchill's Avro York ...

The newspaper articles and news about the Berlin Airlift, prompted me to read up on the Avro York; I was especially interested to read about "Ascalon", WSC's York.

Does anyone know what the communication arrangements were in this a/c? Did it have just the standard T-1154/R-1155 transmitter and receiver? Or was more sophisticated equipment in place? How about cipher equipment when WSC was on the move?

Was the crew drawn from the Royal Flight?

Comments greatly appreciated ...
