Benson – Wednesday 7th July 2021 (Grant Robinson)

Hi all,

An evening visit to catch the return of the ten Puma that had taken part in a day long tour of places that have had some association with the Puma over its 50 years of Royal Air Force service. What a helicopter and a nice touch from the RAF!
