Not a bad selection although that Valetta looks a tad sorry for itself. Can't be many around now. They had an Argosy in similar markings at the Midlands Air Museum, Coventry when I last visited. They also have a Vulcan. The Air/Sea Rescue helicopters were originally painted all-yellow just like that Wessex. I often saw them along here in the "good ol' days". At least it shows up. Wink

It's an Armstrong Whitworth Argosy. Does look similar now you come to mention it. http://users.aber.ac.uk/emk/argosy.htm
