Just visited a very sad Wessex graveyard at Carasco airport in Montevideo. The Fuerza Aerea Uruguay stopped flying them a few years ago due to shortage of spares and 5 of them have been towed round the back of a hangar and left to rot - 2 more are gate guardians. I will post pictures when back in UK and the FAU guys are going to find out the original tail numbers from the maintenance documents.
