Photo Comment

First flown as Sud SA.330A F-ZJUX in June 1968, XW241 was modified to SA.330E and delivered to Westland in October 1968 as a Puma pattern aircraft. Seen here in operation with RAE Bedford, it was struck off in November 1988 and stored, latterly at Farnborough. Since 2007 it has been on display at Farnborough Air Sciences Trust in the RAE 'Raspberry Ripple' colours as last operated.
