XV291 was there 3rd and 6th July 1982. From my logbook:

3 July 1982: Hercules CMK1LRP XV291 Ascension to Port Stanley, Captain Flt Lt F****s, 9hrs 10min day, 5.00 hrs night. Code 'Eleanor'

6 July 1982: Hercules CMK1LRP XV291 Ascension to Port Stanley, same captain, 8hrs 40min day, 5hrs 10min night. Code 'Kathleen'

This might narrow it down a bit.
