Chinook ZH904 - Stevenage A1M Junction 7 Helipad

Hi, A few from this afternoon. They come over quite often, but no idea what they actually do. Maybe picking up/ dropping stuff off to/ from MBDA. They only ever stay for about 10 minutes. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7603/16732329068_7c1480c760_b.jpg IMG_0068 by ab-2014 , on Flickr https://farm9.s...

8th Airforce 70th Anniversary Tribute Flypast (Lakenheath)

Some shots taken from Lakenheath viewing area, got lucky with them coming almost right over the top after flypast at Mildenhall on route to Bodney. Not the best as they Were quite high by time they reached Lakenheath. http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3722/8853614839_c767c4425d_b.jpg 8th Airforce 70th A...

Re: Garden spotting OTT'ers

Not sure if this is classed as Military, Dubai Air Wing AW139 (DU-139??) over Stevenage/ Knebworth heading towards Luton, probably to meet a B737BJ that went in.
