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 ;-)

Highlight of the Koksijde show was this marvelous looking Wessex HU5, which arrived from RNAS Culdrose. The HU5 is a UK-built turbine-powered development of the Sikorsky H-34 Choctaw. The HU5 (101 built) was initially produced for the Royal Navy and later for the Royal Air Force. Within the RN it was operated as an anti-submarine warfare and utility helicopter, but was also used for SAR missions. The type entered service in '61, and had a service life of 'some 40 years before being retired in the UK. This XS484 also served during the Falkland War. It was scrapped at Hanningfield Metals in '97.
