I'm having a slow day here - I removed Walt from my ignore list again to have a look at this evidence people find compelling and found:

- 2 pictures of HC2s that he'd posted (the second one is an HC2, Walt - that colour scheme didn't come in 'til the Mid Life Update, and HH was never a unit code on any HC1 in the early 1990s), both of which have the UHF homing aerials fitted. In the second photo, one is in front of the mainwheel leg and the other is to the left of the retractable landing light.

- A picture from CGB showing the original paintscheme plus the same aerials.

I'm aware from later ops that the walk-on CPLS was/is able to use the same aerials.

How then, despite Walt's misidentification of the 2nd a/c in his picture and the presence of the same aerials in both, does this somehow translate into his being right all along?
