This view, taken from the Portland Coastguard helicopter, shows the whole of the former Navy helicopter base at Portland. At the time the picture was taken (September 2003) much of the site was being cleared for the new National Sailing Academy, and a new hangar was planned for the Coastguard helicopter.
