On the subject of PR and the RN, a nice little piece in the Manchester Metro News ( sorry, no link available ) about an 11yr old kid doing a project on "Flight and space"--writes a letter to the "Boss of the Navy"----who duly sends a Lynx to the school ! ( Picture in the paper shows said Lynx coded 673 hovering behind her ) ------however --the Navy guys may be surprised to learn of a new covert NAS and the role for the Lynx as described by the reporter and quoted below.

" The helicopter, based at Barton Aerodrome, is usually used at air shows".

Very nice piece of PR though in the current climate
