A question, which may be buried within this thread. On 15th Apr '76, a Wessex landing at Crossmaglen was hit by a RPG, causing substantial damage. This is no longer classified, and appears in the Belfast Telegraph of 18 Jan 2015. It names names, but doesn't give the registration. Can anyone help on this? Rumour has it that it was XR 525, on display at the RAF Museum, Midlands. However, from what I can find, 525 suffered Cat 3 damage in May '75, and did not return to 72 until Aug '76. Thanks to anyone who can help.
