Seeing how well the S2F Tracker has had a second career following its retirement from the US Navy, it does surprise me that as yet there has been no serious interest in the Viking from similar quarters. I'd happily see some in RAF colours, if only as a stopgap, and it would make an ideal aircraft for the Falklands, providing maritime surveillance and a refuelling capability for the Tiffies (I know, never in a month of Sundays).
