It's an exhibit at the National Maritime Musuem and was unveiled a few months back. I think someone posted a thread on it at the time.

XV663 Started life as a HAS1, converted to HAS5 then HAS6. First flew 1970 and retired in 2000.

There's no dignity in retirement. After 30 years' faithful service to the Royal Navy, the poor old girl's reward is to be daubed in a ghastly garish yellow.

Culdrose has two gates. The Airfield side needs a G/guard too! Or in 98 the Seahawk was on the Domestic side (or whatever the fishhead area is called!) when I was there.
