I was teetering between staying in the RAF in 1977. Come 1978 XW209 returned from Marigne with the polivalent modification. It arrived in Norway to replace XW 205 which tragically crashed near Bodo. After we returned to Odiham my mind was made up.

The officers Mess had imposed a cash only policy in the bar and I could not bring myself to fly such ugly helicopters.

I then flew presentable S330Js , sleek S76s and not so sleek 332Ls.

Nutty, even my poor fashion taste doesn’t stoop as low as that!
