Marham 02 went low level at Wells, had a radar service with Yeovilton as did F15Es "Rico 51" who went low level 10 miles south east of Yeovilton and "Hammer 21" also went low level.

Does anyone have a full list of serials of what is in so far please.Not too worried about the Saudis but the rest could be useful in deciding whether to go tomorrow and fork out the gate fees or not
Thanks in anticipation
Just wondering but is it "Serials" that decide whether or not you attend an airshow?

Would anyone happen to know the i.d. of the AAC Gazelle presumably a Recruiting Aid near the AAC Trade Stand ? Just marked AAC please?

Many thanks.

yeap.. the construction number was 1645. this would make it XZ327.. BUT.. both port and starboard front doors had XZ349 stenciled on them?? :S
when i asked the guy selling the aircraft participants lists thay allso said it was build number 1645.. so im guessing this is indeed the machine.(at first i though it was XZ349, as the doors said this.. but the doors could have been changed?? but the data plate on the inside i wouldn't have thought would have been.

after a little digging on the net.. i found this
http://www.helis.com/database/cn/9181/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
and that looks more like the machine to me ;)
