I first went to Yeovilton Air Day in 1979, and I spent another day at the local for another cracking day with the Fleet Air Arm.
A shame it was overcast for the majority of the day, but at least it was warm and dry.
It was great to see the recently returned to flight Wessex 5 for the first time, and seeing it flying in formation with a pair of Wasp helicopters, it brought back memories of my school days when I saw both types flying in the circuit at Merryfield Airfield.
Here are a selection of photos from Saturday:

Thanks.
To be honest, I could have easily filled this thread with just Wessex photos!
