Cor - 223 with a 230 door on... that ties it to a particular time.
Or times. The airframes were moved about a bit.
I flew XW223 in Belize in January 1980 and Jan 1981.
I also flew it in Germany in May 1981, now a 230 Sqn aircraft.
On 14th August 1981 I flew it on task with "lsh", again on the strength of 230. Lsh, where did we go? I only recorded the task number in my log book.
On 21st August I did my IRT in it with the late George Blackie as my IRE.
Nov 22nd 1983 I flew her again, still in Germany.
Next and last time for me was 22 Feb 1991, back at Odiham during a refresher course check ride. IIRC, back then 240 OCU were sharing airframes with 33 Sqn due to a severe shortage (GW1).
Task 0813 Trooping Dorbaum 1hr 25min
Will there be anything else Sir ?
