View of the Flight Deck (Instrument Panel and Central Console) of UK Army Air Corps Westland Lynx AH7 XZ643 Cn 178 at RAF Fairford (EGVA) on 07Jul2012. The helo was on static display at the 2012 Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT), during light rain. Note the red Tail Rotor Pedal lock on the Stbd side (to stop anyone trying to steal the helicopter?). I first saw a Lynx helicopter in Sep 1982, on static display outside Earls Court London, during the 1982 Military Tattoo (Lynx AH.7 XZ680 Cn 250).
