Hi,
Can anyone please help identify an AAC Apache that flew over Grantham this morning at approximately 11.30 hours travelling in a north westerly direction.

11.47Z "VIPER02" ZJ190 is currently plotting N of Grantham at 425 ft, Currently heading SW.

It seems to be operating in that general area, so is probably your bird - unless there is another one.

Will update if another one shows up.
Cheers, Bob

11.54Z Sorry to disappoint. "VIPER01" ZJ186 has just started plotting alongside the other one - over Grantham heading off towards Nottingham.

Hopefully you will now see both.
Cheers, Bob

Viper 1 came low-level over Nottingham at around this time.
