Blackbushe R22 gate guard gone

[helihub]

The "R22 on a pole" which greeted car-bound visitors to the main car park at Blackbushe has been removed in the last week or so - reportedly to be re-used as a the basis of a training aid of some sort (who/where/etc ??). Was this the last relic of Cabair at Blackbushe?
