Rob,

A formation of three passed over me (close to Benson) northwest bound at low level at about 09:15 on the 31st. The lead aircraft used callsign "Kukri 1" and was ZA714 according to my Airnav ADSB log.

And a formation of three came back through the Benson zone yesterday, being ZA714 (as "Kukri 1"), ZA705 ("Kukri 2") and ZA675 (strangely, also as "Kukri 1" !).

Obviously I can't be certain that the Friday three were the Tuesday three!

Hi Roger, many thanks for your reply, I agree that it may not be the same three, big thanks for that anyway,
