In 2021, this helicopter received special markings to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Royal Air Force, 311 (Czechoslovak) Squadron. The port side depicts a Vickers Wellington and the starboard side has a Consolidated B-24 Liberator, with which the squadron was armed. The stars on the helicopter refer to the squadron's 274 fallen pilots. It is pictured as part of the static display at this super event. This photo is copyright © Alastair T.
