First Old Warden in several years and despite the afternoon going a little downhill weatherwise still an enjoyable day

A great set Paul, thanks for sharing. The last helicopter (sorry I don't know the type) - is it in South African markings (looks like a Springbok on the badge, but I don't recognise the markings)?

Yes, it's a Westland Wasp HAS1 painted in its former South African Air Force colours. Apparently the aircraft also spent time with the Malaysian Navy but I've never seen any photos of it as such.

A superb set, Paul. Light, colour, detail and sharpness are all 10/10. That location, and the aircraft that are regularly displayed, are both gold.
Cheers,
