Which base hosts both Chinook operations and the PUMA HC-2?

• A. RAF Benson
• B. RAF Odiham and RAF Benson
• C. RAF Waddington
• D. RAF Marham

Answer: (B)

Knowing where different helicopter fleets are based helps explain why these bases fit. Chinook operations are centered at RAF Odiham, the RAF’s main base for the Chinook heavy-lift helicopters. The PUMA HC-2 has been stationed at RAF Benson. So, these two bases together cover the aircraft in question: Odiham for Chinooks and Benson for the PUMA HC-2. The other bases listed do not host these specific helicopters.
