The HC2 shown there ia an RAF version from 72 sqn, which to my knowledge never had those fitted

I can only go by my experience of the ones that came into Prestwick during the 80s, when they did Grenada patrols.

Its a hu5 it was all over green, the only pics on the web are before we started to restore it, I can get hold of some in service photos but it might be a couple of weeks.

Don't Peru still have a few ex-RAF Wessex in service? Last time I saw piccies of them they were still in their RAF scheme, retaining the RAF serial numbers, but with Peruvian markings.

Or have I been overdoing the happy pills again?

Looking better and better with each pic Brian, is there any chance of the SAR scheme I posted being included ?

Many thanks
