Whilst the route incorporates locations with links to Puma, there is not enough time to visit all locations that feature in Puma history. Of note, Scotland, which has played a key role in the development of the skills of Aircrew through Exercise KUKRI DAWN and Operation RESCRIPT where Puma’s deployed to support medical evacuations during COVID-19 from the remote islands.
Please be aware whilst we endeavour to be at the locations on time there may be factors outside our control that causes some delay.
