Photo Comment

'Taipan 2', one of a pair of RAN Squirrels that displayed at the Australian International Airshow. Originally delivered to the RAAF as A22-023 on 27 November 1984, this helo was assigned to the ADF Helicopter School at RAAF Fairbairn, Canberra. It was transferred to the RAN in October 2000, still in its original white and blue scheme. It's since adopted this more 'warry' grey scheme.
