	XZ722 / 645 (cn 177) Although totally unplanned, my son and I were able to make the Duxford 2012 Autumn Airshow on Sunday October 14th, which was the final air show in England for the year. The Royal Navy’s “Black Cats” Helicopter Display Team (based at the Royal Naval Air Station Yeovilton in Somerset) was the highlight of the show. The team flies the Lynx Maritime Attack helicopter. This was their last performance using the Lynx. They will transition into the new Agusta/Westland “Wildcat” helicopter. This was the best helicopter demonstration I have ever seen. Here, the Lynx 645 is about to lift off for the final “Black Cat” performance.
