Maybe one for the N.Sea guys.

Heard then spotted G-BKFN on the ILS for 34 at ABZ this morning.

Have Bristow returned it to revenue earning duties or was it crew training.

Does it have long to go before Bristow retire it(believe it's the last one of the ex B-Cal Helis 4 original examples).

G-BKFN
G-BKFP
G-BMDU
G-BKJD

Remember seeing 'FN,'FP & 'JD together on the Bristow apron at ABZ a few years back.

Were the others scrapped or moved to other provinces?

Just curious.

G'Day!

I have seen the 214 quite regularly over the past 2/3 weeks I think it is back on revenue, last I heard was it was going to be shipped off to some foreign land i.e Vietnam but it has been on the go regularly of late.
