I believe the Puma USL shot under CH47 BR ZA711 was taken in 82 at Odiham. 711 went on to be the first 7 Sqn SF cab later that year and for quite some time. BR had been the Ascension cab during Op Corporate (Falklands War) and had not long returned.
I even believe I might be the P1 in BR - just finished my CH47 "War course" on 240. The Puma had taken some wires near Petersfield if I recall!!
As someone said - dont they all look clean and simple - Oh for the days when their Airships believed that SH never went close to, never mind across the "FEBA" - the FEBA??? - I hear many a recent war veteran cry!!!

Cheers
