From George Jones information regarding a forced landing by one of the RAF Valley Sea Kings in Snowdonia on Thursday 21st February. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-north-west-wales-26285199 for a brief report. Pic in Daily Post shows it to be XZ596/-, and state that it was built 1978 and delivered to Valley 1996.......an old hand ...... The helicopter landed on a ridge above Rachub near Bethesda and was retrieved after fix on Friday. There is video on the Daily Post website.

LOL, bloody good disguise then, I remember being at RAF Catterick many years ago and the resident Regiment members got up to all sorts of disguises out of all those rocks in the picture I can not see one visible. Brilliant.
