These NH-90s do my head in - I always read about them after they have left!

The exercise started today and finishes on 21st Nov, Mike.

So look out for them on the way back!! Put in your diary.

Also reported on MSF that a third NH90 landed at Odiham about 1630 N-325.

I certainly will look out for them but it is a bit of a lucky dip on where they stop. Odiham, Benson, Manston bar the rest!

Need two of them but can't justify the mileage.

You can forget Manston, it closed in May 2014.

N-088 was seen arriving at Culdrose from a sortie Thursday afternoon, weather was poor so no decent photo's. No sign of the others, reportedly hangared.

When I have been at Culdrose I find it is worth walking around the back of the hangar complex near the viewing area (by following the fence line). There is a large ramp and last time there were often two outside but not visible from the viewing area.

Must be a good chance of these heading home Friday 18/11?


(Last year one departed home on a Thursday and the remaining two the next day)

Three NH-90 arrived at Odiham at about 10:05 Friday 18/11 from Culdrose on the way home to De Kooy

Saw 3 NH-90's in the distance from my house over the Haywards Heath area this morning. Were these the same ones?

I should think so , there aren't all that many NH-90s about. If it was after 11 am then they were departures.
