Thanks for that great photo.I have one from the stbd, side in b&w, but no date. I rang the photog. to check as I thought it was 1968 as well. The exhausts are partially hidden as its a side-by-side fuselage and wider than usual cowled Merlins.
Names that may have flown it at BD are; Olly Sutton, Chris Wheal, Al Tarver, and it may have been in support of F4, Buccaneer, or the Black Sea- Vixen trials.

Anyway, thanks all for your efforts,


PS Sp2- Yes I did fly Sycamores on basic helo training, and did do SAR in the Far East on 103 Sqdn, but left in `67.
