Ex Indian AF ZW-4308 (ntu). Delivered to the Nigerian AF as NAF281 on 21 November 2014. Reportedly later re-registered as NAF543. Seen here carrying an MoD serial, presumably crew training with AgustaWestland.

Registration cancelled on 25 February 2003 as destroyed. During a flight on 8 June 2002 from Chandler, Arizona, both of the left wings separated causing the aircraft to crash killing both occupants. The aircraft was considered to be a write off, being damaged beyond repair. I photographed the aircraft's data plate showing the c/n, date built and the name of the builder, Mike Fisher. So there is something of a mystery here! Is this the original N8205H (which was photographed at Badminton on 14 july 1991 in a very similar, but not identical, colour scheme), or a rebuild from the wreckage of the Arizona crash?

I have recently received confirmation from the current owner of the wreck of the original N8205H that this is NOT the same aeroplane. Enquiries are ongoing, but the suggestion is that the airframe in my photograph is something of an imposter that may never have been flown or registered. See also Photo ID 331637.
