Royal Navy Bids Farewell To Lynx After 40 Years' Service

The Royal Navy has bid farewell to the Lynx helicopter, which has been a stalwart in the Fleet Air Arm for four decades.

The aircraft, which operated from the Senior Service's frigates and destroyers, was officially decommissioned at a ceremony held by 815 Naval Air Squadron at RNAS Yeovilton - just click above to watch Rebecca Ricks' report.

As Kate Wathall reports, however, it was also an emotional day for enthusiasts at the Fleet Air Arm Museum.
