She was wfu at Lubumbashi, Zaire, after a hard landing on a strip at Manono (Shaba) on 1.6.79, being broken up the following year

Looking very smart in RAF Air Support Command's unique sand camo, this Argosy carrying the cobra emblem of 114 Sqdn was an unusual visitor to Southend, although the type did make appearances at the splendid airshows there in 1968 and 1970. First flying in 8.62, she was wfu at Shawbury just four months after this photo then moved to Kemble from 2.72, being broken up there in 1975

How about a Whistling Wheelbarrow formation team then? The Red Arrows practise on their Gnats above Kemble while many of the RAF's Argosies languish in storage below. XP438 joined 105 Sqdn on 14.8.62 and moved to 114 Sqdn in 1967. Withdrawn to 5MU in 10.71 and broken up 12.75
