Well done 'fareastdriver', some great atmosphere shots there. As no one has responded to my offer to scan their Far East slides, I thought I would show a few Whirlwinds from my collection taken in Borneo during 1966-67.
First up is XK986 of 230 Squadron with an armed guard in a very tight jungle clearing
There we have a nice air-to-air of XP329 of 110 Squadron.
I guess safety and being seen become more important than camouflage as here we have XR456 of 110 Squadron heavily adorned with orange dayglo and also with the sand filter fitted to the nose.
Even more colourful was XP303 which not only has the dayglo strips but also
appears to have a replacement tailboom from a yellow 'Rescue' Whirlwind'..unless this one was actually used as a dedicated rescue chopper?
