Bravo November
Does anyone know if BN is still active in the Afganistan theatre. I saw a TV documentary a few months ago (but I do not know when it was filmed) which featured that particular aircraft. I was interested because as far as I recall it was the sole survivor of the Atlantic Conveyor loss in 1982.
I did a search but failed to come up with anything on this forum.

I think you might find she is back in UK having her bits looked at.
You are right, however, as she was the sole survivor of the initial batch of Chinooks sent south and she was being air tested when the Atlantic Conveyor was attacked.

Yes, partly correct, It's a Jolly Green Giant with things like huge Bollocks slung underneath. if you look through some recent threads you'll see a picture of one with not 2 but 4 Big balls pre "having her bits looked at".
.Now if you had actually READ (that is if you can read) the post above yours, the poster actually says what it is and part of the story as to why it is famous, or at least the first thing in it's history that made her famous.

Sorry Karma I should have been more specific in my OP. Perhaps I should have mentioned Chinook, ( I certainly intended to, but missed it out inadvertently). As you will now know this heavy lift helicopter had to do the work of several during the Falklands War.
