Ulster get their Wessex

Have just heard that the Ulster Aviation Society at Langford Lodge have at long lastreceived a Wessex airframe, it being Wessex XR517. Ex 72 Sqn; Ex 60 Sqn and probably quite a few more.

This small but very enthusiastic group have been after a Wessex for years and deserve it having had little support from the Military with its "No favours whilst there is a scrap man about" atttude.

The Wessex having served in the Province for over 30 years can now be seen where the first one to retire should have been sent.

Congratulation to any UAS members that may frequent these pages, and if any viewers have a little bit of history stored away in an attic, I am sure the folks there would welcome it.

This is not a commercial post as I have nothing to do with UAS, and admission is FREE!
