Req: Lynx at St Mawgan Wednesday 27th April

Post by JPXN458 » Fri Apr 29, 2016 5:51 am

Morning all, whilst in Cornwall earlier this week I saw and photographed at great distance a solitary grey Lynx/Wildcat, does anyone know of any based there at the moment...I got to airport just as it was hover taxiing to the hangars on the opposite side to the terminal...and not to be seen again! No other active military noted during the week.

Thanks in advance

Paul,
I'm not sure whether this link will work, but there is a good photo of it on this forum.

It’s not what you look at that matters. It’s what you see.

... Just to add a note of uncertainty ZK195 was also noted, on this forum, as outside at Yeovil on Wednesday.

Thanks guys, the pictures from the 28th certainly make me think ZK196 is the one I saw
