HELICOPTER fleets at RAF Benson took centre stage during a visit from the Defence Minister today.
Philip Dunne visited the base to meet personnel, crews and engineers, while admiring helicopters at the site.
He was there to highlight the different types of helicopter that have deployed in overseas work over the past 12 months.
The Ministry of Defence also announced its pledge to ensure five per cent of its work force would include young people on structured training courses.
