XT761/G-WESX returns to Chard (3 July)

Post by Seacat192 » Tue Jul 05, 2022 7:49 am

I managed to photograph the Wessex returning to Chard after it had attended the Fly Navy event at Old Warden on Sunday evening.

The Sea King stayed that bit further away, but the Wessex was closer as it made its' approach to the site:

Looking forward to seeing this flying again next month at the Historic Helicopters Open Day.



Thanks for looking
