Suppose it depends on where you live, as the Norwegian Sea Kings were fairly regular visitors to 202 Sqn at Lossiemouth

Great catch and always good to see some colour on military a/c.

Nice to see it on its way.

On the subject of re visiting.

16 aircraft will be delivered and flown from 6 bases.
There will be a high stand by SAR availability target so listening to a talk on the project the other Day I cant see any being made available for a jolly.

Thanks for the photo comments.

Unfortunately, the aircraft was involved in an incident today and rolled over.
