Final farewell (almost)
So today was the last flight of an operational Lynx in RN service and 815 Squadron did us proud. A simple hangar ceremony, followed by a flying display then lots of booze and food. Seemples, but spot on. The only reason for the post title is that there will be a final evening hangar party next Thursday where 1300 people are due to attend.
Some photos:
Donating a copy of my book to Commander Phil Richardson the CO of 815
HMS Goucester's Lynx, probably the most successfull Lynx ever after her performance in Gulf War One
We decided that this mark of Lynx was a Mark 3 (B) the B standing for Beer and yes it was a fully functioning bar with two working taps. Now why didn't we think of that before?
A moment before landing on - the last ever flight of an RN Lynx
