EDITORS COMMENTS
Dry Winching Drill: A rare sight of a Westland Wessex HC2 helicopter from 75 Squadron taking on the role of two grounded Westland Whirlwind helicopters at RAF Leconfield. This substitution was necessary due to an unexpected gearbox problem discovered in the Whirlwinds of 202 Search and Rescue Squadron. Captured on December 15th, 1967, this photograph showcases the resilience and adaptability of the Royal Air Force during challenging times. Hovering gracefully in mid-air, this military aircraft demonstrates its prowess as it practices dry winching drills over Yorkshire's skies. The skilled winchman aboard ensures that rescue operations can be carried out efficiently even under adverse conditions. This snapshot transports us back to the vibrant era of the sixties when technological advancements were rapidly transforming air force capabilities. England's landscape serves as a picturesque backdrop for this powerful machine, symbolizing both strength and unity. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints, this print encapsulates a significant moment in aviation history.
