Suggestions were invited for the model name for the WG 30 (a possible military buy at the time), preferrably following in the 'w' tradition. Like Wessex, Whirlwind, and even Wapiti!

A grumpy jock pilot on 230 (Puma) Sqn at the time proposed 'Wardrobe'.

When asked why, he said, "Cos when you load the heap of sh!t up, you can't move the fu@@@r"
