Little or no chance of them ever being used for OGS work at again from Aberdeen and elsewhere - the footage of the rotor head and blades cartwheeling down has done for the type. Even if the CAA approved to operate again, the rig-workers will simply refuse to fly in them. The S-92 and various Leonardo/AW types have more than covered the shortfall.

Other than G-REDK and G-REDR to Spain, does anyone know where the others have been transported to?

When were each of these photos taken please? Blue covers and white covers. In one the yellow pair are nearest the door, in another they're at the back. obvs these photos are taken at various different times.

Does anyone have info on which 225s departed when?

REDK was cancelled to Spain in November 2018
