I popped into RNAS Yeovilton on Wednesday on the recommendation of a friend, and caught this beauty.
It was being flown by Lt Cdr Dave MacKay RNR.
She sounds in great shape!

Quite agree! Centaurus. not quite Griffon or Merlin but close enough!

:) I think the Centaurus is a bit more reliable and damage tolerant than the Merlin or Griffin. I speak after 2000hrs on the Shackleton, which cost me a lot of friends.
