英国海王直升机告别飞行，49年的服役生涯画上句号。849 NAS的两架海王MK7直升机冒着大雨和低能见度等恶劣气象条件进行了3个小时的告别飞行：舞台已经搭好，谢幕必须进行。沿途为海王送行的民众数量让飞行员惊讶

“We were really surprised by the number of people who turned out – and especially the number of schoolchildren who spelled out messages for us. One group lined up as ‘BZ’ – naval terminology for ‘well done’,” said Commander Chris Hughes, 849’s Commanding Officer.

“It’s been really heartwarming to see so many people wanting to say goodbye to the old girl, particularly in the conditions: rain and fog, which became worse as the flight continued. The poor visibility and low cloud mean we were operating on the edge.”
