the Wessex was a big lumpy pudding stirring experience - even SAS out, it lacked finesse.
You should have taken the stick trim out to get nearer to a Whirlwind! I do agree though that the nicest to fly - if not to do a job of work in - was the Whirlwind 9. Engine offs into dispersal with a full SAR crew in the back? No problem!
