Re: Are MO F15s due w/c 12th April?

Can anyone confirm where they are parked and are they are visible from the outside ?? A friend went up today, they are spread over both pans I believe, he could only read 12 of 13 seen, the others remained elusive. His log of what could be seen if it helps. 90-237, 238, 242, 243, 246, 248, 253, 255...

Re: Yeovil (Westland) Sightings Summer 2020

Definitely not the AW149, the main rotor cap was shaped like a tophat, hence my Lynx/Wildcat speculation.

Re: Yeovil (Westland) Sightings Summer 2020

To be fair we could only see the top of it, so could quite easily be a Lynx!

An update at 1400L AW101 0279 still outside but on main apron, tower end. Merlin ZH829 still parked at the 09 end. Lynx ZH583, Merlin ZJ995 and an AAC Wildcat all on main apron. Regards Mark Was there whilst ZH583 was flying. 0279 was put back inside circa 1630 ZJ995 not seen, so presume back away....

Why is this posted on Northolts page.lol
I'm guessing because, as far as I'm aware(correct me if I'm wrong) there is no Stansted page, and the info is regarding the "Trump visit" as per your original header!

Info is info, and we are all grateful for it. :thumb:

Re: Lakenheath 8/10

88-1707 noted on the ramp no special marks at 1530L 11-10-19.
By my calculations this is the missing frame from the first six.
