If my memory serves correct the Gazelle in question was registered G-RALE previously owned by Malcom Wilson (Malcom Wilson Motor Sport) based initially at Carlisle Airport. This machine was one of the rebuilt aircraft imported from the States by John and Lyne Davies of Specialist Flying Training. The original G-RALY was a Robinson R22 also owned by Malcom Wilson this aircraft was written off on the field second solo by Malcom. I remember two guys arriving one friday to purchase the aircraft which subsequently was involved in the drug run. The pilot was more concerned about his type rating than the condition of the aircraft. Paid for the helicopter in cash.
