EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Aerospatiale SA.316B Alouette III 212 (msn 1964) of the Irish Air Corps, as it gracefully sits on the tarmac at Royal Naval Air Station (RNAS) Yeovilton on 8 July 2006. The Alouette III, a versatile and agile helicopter, was a common sight in the Irish Air Corps fleet during the early 21st century. Manufactured by Aerospatiale, a renowned French aerospace corporation, the Alouette III was a popular choice for military and civilian applications due to its robust design and impressive capabilities. This particular aircraft, registered to the Irish Air Corps as 212, was assigned to 302 Squadron. The Alouette III was a multirole helicopter, capable of performing various tasks such as transport, reconnaissance, and training missions. Its sleek design and distinctive twin-engine configuration made it a distinctive addition to the RNAS Yeovilton airfield. On this day in 2006, the Irish Air Corps' Alouette III 212 was undergoing maintenance or training exercises at RNAS Yeovilton. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the essence of aviation, showcasing the harmony between technology and nature, as the helicopter awaits its next mission. The Tony Lovelock Collection, from Mary Evans Prints Online, has captured this moment in time, allowing us to appreciate the historical significance and beauty of this aircraft. The Alouette III may no longer be in service with the Irish Air Corps, but this photograph serves as a reminder of its contributions to the aviation industry and the memories it left behind.
