A quartet of Hiller UH-12's of the Royal Navy making a fuel stop at Eelde. Later, this helicopter became G-BDYY and EI-BCA. It was cancelled April 7, 1987 and became SX-HCD. Besides XS705, you can also see XS160/48, XS166/41 and XS168/47. These Hillers were built as three-seat dual-control light utility and observation helicopters and were used in the Navy as training aircraft.
