Thanks for this heads up Jeff- I've been hoping this would appear for a few years now. It is one of my last dozen or so Lynx, so need to get over and see it!
Cheers

Bit more on its history
XZ166 was the first production Lynx HAS2 and was retained as a development airframe
retained at Farnborough for acoustic and vibration testing before being passed to FAST.
