I used to love seeing the Chinook around Aberdeen. Great aircraft to see, although I know from reading elsewhere that it wasn't a favourite for some.
Post 1986 did the type do any ad-hoc flying or did they sit around ABZ before they were disposed of? Think I recall a few non-oil charters.
When did the last one leave?
As I recall, 6 in the BAH fleet. Miss them today.
I'm sure finally I remember one substituting on a BA flight to Glasgow, replacing a Budgie. Maybe my memory is playing tricks.
