I was at Scampton 1980-82 (as an engineer) and we still had 230 Operational Conversion Unit until near the end of 81 (IIRC). Any brand new co-pilots would have come through the Jetstream- there were a few young pilots around then - but I don't know if they just (re-) trained experienced pilots at that late stage
