Another falling out of the clag story involves that most warlike of machines the Westland Sioux.''

Standing on one of the helipads at Bessbrook Mill 1975 was an RAF squadron leader with his number 2 telling all the world how the weather was appalling and the mighty Wessex would not be going anywhere.

Out of the cloud dropped a Sioux flown by one Sgt G Laverton. To discomfort the Wessex crew even further his body armour was adorned with a large dayglo superman "S" !!!!!!!!

Army, big grins all round. Airforce, sad shaking of heads and off to check to weather.
