A recent arrival when this picture was taken, XZ221 was first reported here in July 2014. This is a former Air Air Corps Lynx, many of which found their way to musea and sports ranges around that time. This one is taken well care off, although its main rotor blades still require installation!

Assigned to 9Regt during this deployment to Afghanistan. The helicopter gave mainly armed support to transport helicopters. The Lynx was first flown on 11 May 1979 and delivered as AH1 to the Army Air Corps on 4 July 1979. It was later converted to AH7. It was last reported as stored with Everett Aero at Sproughton (UK) in 2014. It is here seen at the AAC platform at Kandahar in the late afternoon.

This Lynx flew first on 9 Jul'79, it was retained by Westland for flight trials. The Lynx was delivered as an AH1 to the Army Air Corps on 22 Feb'84. It was later converted to AH7. Served the AAC up to 1 Dec'11. On that day, the Lynx suffered an in flight fire due to a hydraulic leak. The pilot performed an emergency landing in a field near Tatenhausen (Germany), about 16 km from RAF Gütersloh. The crew abandoned the helo which was consumed by fire before the local fire brigade arrived. Great to have a click here at AirHistory of the helicopter while parked at the platform of Kandahar.
