Did I hear right that CX was destroyed in the conflict in Libya?

I ferried that one when it came to the UK in January 1986 and nurtured it through the IHUMS trials in '87. If I remember correctly, only certain crews were authorised to fly CX whilst it was accruing IHUMS time

CX was even involved in the BBC Production of "The Bell Run", a play partially filmed offshore Aberdeen about North Sea Diving. Even though I flew the a/c for the filming, never got a role as an extra cos I wasn't in Equity - lol
