I can't work out what BCTX was doing there but I would date this picture in 74 or 75 or late 79 early 80?
So, Tail Take Off, am I right?
Havn't a clue I was still running around in short trousers then. It's just a picture I stumbled across on the internet when I had a bit too much time on my hands. Thought it might provoke some interesting discussion. It came from
Image of Sikorsky S-58. Photos from the AirTeamImages.com Collection of Pictures where the notes date it 1977 but who knows?
By the way the registration on the wessex looks more like G-BAWJ to me.
I know that the S58t & the Wessex were built by differant manufacturers in differant countries & that one was a modified single while the other was always a twin but did they have any common or interchangeable components. (I suspect I have already answered my own question).
