Notes:

With the recent retirements of several elderly fixed wing aircraft in the RAF, the Puma has inherited the dubious honour of being the oldest type in service. This airframe dates from 1971. It is seen here getting progressively wetter from the drizzle as it poses during a charity night photoshoot at RAF Northolt.
