RVL at East Mids is the remains of the other part of AA still using the 310’s etc and they were using one of the Daks a year or so ago I believe.

The ‘Indian’ Dak has been at Benson lately. It may still be there.

Quote from RAF Benson Facebook page march 9th

”We had an extra special visitor arrive this week – a Dakota DC3 of the Indian Air Force. The aircraft has recently undergone restoration work and will be here completing essential pre-flight tests for a few weeks before it heads off on the long journey home.

Here are just some of the amazing pictures captured by SAC Amy Lupton.”

The Indian one (ex-G-AMSV) had left Coventry as long ago as 2010, as it went to Ireland in late 2010 before going to Kemble in June 2011 for strip-down etc. for India.
