Previously used by AESS Gosport for ground instruction as A2749, then moved to Predannack's Fire School on 21 February 2006. It was upright for a few hours while its gearbox was removed, to be used to drive an air compressor in a workshop. It was later laid back on its side, minus the two engines. Moved on 14 June 2017 to an unknown location.

Painted to represent a locally-relevant RAF Rescue Wessex HC.2, this is really a Royal Navy HU.5 which spent its career from 1964 with 700, 848 and 707 NAS and then from 1968 as a test and evaluation helicopter with the A&AEE Boscombe Down, largely engaged on worldwide cold weather trials. It was withdrawn from use as an apprentice trainer at Farnborough from 1986 and as a fire trainer at Manston by 1995, moving to the museum around 2000.
