Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
Be interesting to see what aircraft come over? Think I'm at Saturdays Tattoo but will miss the flypast on the 10th due to prior engagement so hopefully will see a majority of them Weather permitting of course.

XW216 Puma currently in the Forth bridges/Edinburgh area at 1200ft. Presuming out for a practice before tonight.
Does anyone know where it is based for the weekend?

Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
We had the Puma flying near us in the Craigmillar Castle area about 20 minutes ago. If I remember correctly, helicopters have been based at either Redford or Dreghorn barracks in the past.
Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
I managed to track it as it followed the M90 to Milnathort where it dropped off. Looks like they were out for a little jolly.
Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
Tonight’s aircraft is already in the Bass Rock hold. Call sign Ascot 471
Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
ZM408 A400M :- viewtopic.php?f=8&t=165697
Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
And Puma c/S Vortex 230 is the second aircraft for tonight.
Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
Never saw the Puma but did catch the A400 overhead Kirknewton Airfield on it's way South.
Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
Puma was over castle at 1920, ZM408 was overhead at 1930hrs.
Re: Tattoo flypasts 2018
Saw the Puma from the q getting into the Tattoo and the A.400 was going over as I was getting to my seat. Saw the backside of it from under the stand!
