Westland-Bell Sioux AH.1 XT228

While our small RAF contingent was baking in the relentless sun of Bahrain at Hamala Camp in July 1969 with the Royal Anglian Regiment, this Army Sioux suddenly turned up.
I have since learned that it was sold in 1979 to become D-HAFR, and subsequently OE-CXS in Austria, D-HHBB and OE-CXS again before being scrapped.
The registration D-HAFR is now carried by a Bell 205A-1.

i know exactly, what happened to xt 228, because I had been the Pilot of OE-CXS for many years until a crash in munich in the year 2001 due to technical problems
