Only RAF Chinook to serve in the Falklands War, due to the Arctic Conveyor sinking, taking with it all the other Chinooks deployed to the conflict. Fortunate to have seen her fly on a couple of occasions. Thankfully, she has been saved and preserved at the RAF Museum in Cosford, for a well deserved retirement.
