There's journalism for you - a whole article about the Sea King complete with pictures of...an S-92 and an EH-101...and no pictures of a Sea King. A shame I'll never live to see my own obituary complete with pictures of Cher and Linda Evangelista.

Seaking humour

A humourous look at a great aircraft which was kept in harness too long.
Sorry I can not remember who sent these to me.

Someone should compose a poem to this venerable machine.

There once was a Sea King in Fife
With safety that cut like a knife
When on S.A.R.
You could hear from afar
The pilot's prayers, 'cos he feared for his life!

*ahem*
