A few pictures for your viewing pleasure ... a very nice little plane, affectionately known as the "scooter" by those who drove them.

A somewhat later image, taken around the end of 1982, early 83.

Notice that the air to air refuelling pipes have been bent outboard...that was to stop any fuel leakage on uncoupling from going straight down the intake.

Pilots in the images: LCDR Peter Clark, and SBLT Paul Kalade.

What were you driving when you took that pic mate?

I'd reckon there'd be an interesting story behind the decision to need to change the refueling probe.

see 883 and 887 are in both sets of pics.
