Good bye after near 5 decades of service of the GAzelle AH1 in Army Air Corps (AAC) Service (Royal Air Force and Royal Navy fleet Air Arm Gazelles HT1 were retired well over a quarter of a century ago with flying training under Private Finance Initiative while the Royal Marines - Commando Helicopter Force 847 NAval Air Squadron retired theirs in the last decade).

Anyhow sadly the flypast did not come anywhere near my neighbourhood in East Anglia, so I am going to revisit when six and half years ago 2017, I attended the 50th Anniversary of the GAzelle helicopter held at our School of Army Aviation / Army Air Corps Centre at Middle Wallop so here are my photos of both our AAC, along with French Army Aviation (ALAT) pair and civilian owners.
cheers
