Soggy: Many thanks for this background info on BCalH.

Am fairly well versed with the Metpol contract but was unaware of the pilot transfer work ex-Falmouth and which must, one assumes, have been interesting.

Did you get the opportunity to fly one of the 206's fitted with Ferranti's SAS and, if so, how was the general handling of the craft when compared with a standard 206?

Were BCalH also looking at the 234?

Wasps & Scouts ..



A Westland Wasp from HMS Minerva. Any assistance with a prospective date and location would be most welcome.

One presumes that this is the same Minerva that HRH The Prince of Wales served aboard and which frigate was launched in 1964.
