Tony Blair's helicopter

[amanoffewwords]

Does anyone know more about the helicopter Tony Blair used after being interviewed on ITV1 this morning? Thought I saw a navy symbol on the tail but not sure - not an expert in that department.

Just curious though...

Cheers

I`m pretty sure it was one of the RAF Twin Squirrels they use for VIP transport.

Yep, a Twin Squirrel, RAF.

PS Did he look like a bit of a fat git waddling off the heli?? And he was promoting PE in schools.

There was talk of Two Jags John, being measured up for his own Corporate or was it Corpulant helicopter, so he could get back to Hull and be with his even more corpulant wife in his Neo Georgian/Edwardian/Barratt made "Prescot Towers"

The type they were considering was from the Executive R22 range!!

Vfr:ok:

How come Pres Bushs' poodle hasn't been presented with an R22 by Frank as a present for services rendered? Such a nice cheap to run and reliable machine would please the UK taxpayers. It is Christmas after all!

As opposed to "Two jabs" Blunkett? :E

I heard David Blunkett had been found swinging his guide dog on its lead around his head like a helicopter. Disturbed passers by had run over to him to protest his treatment of this poor defenseless animal, to which he said, 'I'm just having a look around'!:D
(Not very 'PC' - sorry :E )
