FINAL FLIGHT OF THE ROYAL NAVY Sea King Sea King Mk7 helicopters left RNAS Culdrose for the last time on Wednesday 26th September 2018 Aircraft in the pictures are flying over over Burrator Reservoir, Sheepstor, nr Yelverton, Devon on route from RNAS Culdrose to HMS Sultan After almost 50 years of active operations, the last military Sea King helicopters from flying in the United Kingdom, left Royal Naval Air Station Culdrose in Helston, Cornwall for retirement on Wednesday 26th September 2018. Aircrew from 849 Naval Air Squadron flew them the Sea King helicopters to HMS Sultan for disposal. The helicopters took off from RNAS Culdrose, refuelled at RNAS Yeovilton and then flew over Westlands where the Sea King helicopters were made, and various Naval establishments in the Portsmouth area. A fourth aircraft wiill be delivered by road. This very special aircraft has played a vital role in many operational conflicts including the Falklands, Iraq, the Balkans, Sierra Leone and Afghanistan. During the past 49 years, the Sea King helicopter has been used for anti-submarine warfare, search-and-rescue missions, carrying Royal Marines Commandos into action and has provided airborne early warning and intelligence to the Fleet and ground forces. It’s in that last role – the Sea King Mk7 Airborne Surveillance and Control (ASaC) helicopter – that an aircraft designed in the late 1950s, flew its final operational mission earlier this year.
