The good old RAF website says that they do....

But surely that's balls?

I haven't seen one at Benson or Odiham for many many months.

No, the last one went about 6 months ago. Don't you read the RAF News?

I had been under the impression that only the Army Air Corps still had Gazelles until I went to Boscombe, where they were converting their HT2s, or 3s or whatever, to the same paper standard as Army aircraft, in order to continue operating them. I guess I thought that Odiham might have done the same, but hadn't seen one there for a while, so thanks for the confirmation.
