3 BAS a/c at Stanley racecourse the day after the ceasefire - RN trying to fly the Argentine Bell and DT may be one of the Scouts.

DT on Tristram during a 'kit recovery landing' flown by Jeff Niblett and John Glaze. Taken just after the conflict and markings on nose can be seen.

DT on an LPD (HMS Fearless) travelling South in 82. I can say this because peacetime colours (white T on nose) has been painted out and small DT is just below RH cockpit window.

All 6 3 BAS Scouts on the rear of the LPD deck leaving Norway. About 1980.

3 BAS Scouts on an LPD coming back from Norway about 1980. DT is back right.

Jim, hope XX411 is safely tucked away at the museum and you are all recovered. Our combined thanks for allowing your Gazelle to be the centre-piece at Waddington, hope the attached photos are of use in your growing collection.
