Out on the flightline at the present time (13:00) are:
EH101/Merlin white/red tail - has been engine running, now shut down
EH101/Merlin in primer finish towed out later.
Can't get any identities from my position.
Addendum at 13:30
White Merlin no longer visible, put away?
Primer Merlin started up and took off - still couldn't get any ID off it !

Re: Yeovil (Westlands) Sightings Summer 2018
Much to my suprise I arrived at Yeovil at 16.10 to find Brazilian Lynx ZH965 (N-4004) still outside...bonus for me!
Re: Yeovil (Westlands) Sightings Summer 2018
Your primer Merlin is probably ZZ100 and the Red/White one could be ZZ105 as it was being made ready for ground running earlier in the week and is due at Farnborough showbinbrook32 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 06, 2018 12:19 pmFriday 06 July 2018

Re: Yeovil (Westlands) Sightings Summer 2018
There was also a Norwegian in the Wash rack this morning. Lots of panels missing and no rotors or tail feathers, so unlikely to be the one Binbrook saw engine running.
