Former RAF XR505. Flown by his majesty, King Charles III back when he was in the RAF. Story tells it that when Prince Charles visited Uruguay in 1999 he visited the Naval aviation base in Laguna del Sauce, and when he saw this helicopter, he began looking for the number plate. When he found it, he told the officers he had flown this helicopter. This is not only the last Wessex to operate for the Uruguayan navy, but the last one to operate in the world. Since it was withdrawn from use, it has been preserved in the hangar as it was.

exhibit in the former Belfast prison »Crumlin Road Gaol« from the Victorian era, which was closed in 1996 and is now one of great visitor attractions of the capital of Northern Ireland; being operated by the 72 Squadron at RAF Aldergrove until 2002 for more than 40 years, it was used as a Gate Guardian at RAF Aldergrove from May 2003 and finally transferred to Belfast in 2019; the Wessex played a key role during the infamous troubles in the country

Delivered to the RAF on 2 January 1968, and stored at Fleetlands since early 1997. It was moved to Gosport late 1997, left by road to Benson in April 2002, reported again at Gosport in May 2003 (up to January 2012 and then seen as a road runner to Hixon early 2012. Stored there and moved to Air & Ground location at Shirleywich. Again seen stored, but then at Culham Adventure Land in April 2013. It was said to be sold a new owner in France but was still in that Advanture Land early 2020. What an effort for this beautiful Wessex... it deserves some rest ;-)
