Re: Leonardo (Yeovil Westland) Sightings 2024
I-RAIR is AW.139 MSN 32082 for UK civil registration, probably to replace the S.76s. 32083 has been test flying from Vergiate as I-EASM.

Re: Italian Navy Portsmouth Dockyard
Designations correct. There were also four EH-101A (2-09 - 2-12), which was the EH 101 Heliborn Early Warning variant, but the kit didn't perform to the spec, and the four are supposed to be 'being converted for general duties'....

Re: Leonardo (Yeovil Westland) sightings 2023
I know this is not a Yeovil sighting, but something pinging 43C7DB and callsign WHE20 is operating from Vergiate today (22/08). Has this hex ever been identified ? It could be a Merlin.

Re: Leonardo (Yeovil Westland) sightings 2023
To answer my own question, 407ECB is G-SHDF, an AW.139 c/n 32003 registered yesterday to Executive Jet Charter. Apologies for the civilian intrusion.

Re: Italian Airforce 100th anniversary 2023
As I understand it, there will be no foreign participation in the Pratica di Mare event, and the G.91 is probably unlikely to leave Italy, so your dreams are likely to be unfulfilled... On the plus side, all AM operational bases are due to be open on the 28th March, probably with a small static, and...
