Exercise 'Faraday Field', Altcar 16.1.19

[TAFFEVANS]

Decided to pop up & see what was going on, first time there. Fairly luck since they launched en-masse at 1100 & all returned 45mins later. Weather wasn't brilliant but the overcast conditions meant that you weren't photographing into sun. Then saw one of the Chinooks (ZK553) carrying out visual circuits at RAF Woodvale so popped up before driving home.

Thank you for taking the time to travel up and photgraph the action. Any one any idea what produces that green light under the Chinook. I have seen the same effect through my camra with one head on.

It's the strobe reflecting of the green paint.
