Spending the day with TF19

Image 

We (a news group and myself) were flown out to the SAS Drakensberg with a 22 Sqdn Oryx.  The pilot, knowing that he had a group of news reporters on the helicopter, made sure that all of us could take some great photos of the task group before landing on the deck of the SAS Drakensberg. We were then briefed by the Officer commanding TF19  - Captain Douglas Faure.  He briefly explained the program and then led us to the observation deck. The pilots of the three visiting Navies gave us a lovely display.  Helicopters included the following:

  • Lynx – Brazil
  • Alouette III – Argentina
  • AS 359 B Squirrel – Uruguay
