I was just out for a walk and what should drive past but a van with a Westland wasp on a trailer behind it Cheesy

It pulled into the local Morrisons car park so I wen't over to have a chat with the driver who explained they were putting it on display until Sunday to raise funds for a restoration.

So If anyone wants to see it it's at Morrisons Fishponds car park until Sunday.

I'll try and get some pics at the week end Cheesy

As Charlie and Hagar will attest to, it's one of my favourite helo's to watch at an airshow. Was the first thing that caught my eye at old warden.

What does a Westland Wasp look like, you ask? hadn't seen one either, but I found this very nice picture of one:

Hey, no problem...  Grin

There's something wonderfully utilitarian about this helicopter... and it must really look strange when taxiing with all four wheels on the ground... a shopping-cart with a serious attitude...  Cheesy
