By Newquay standards a good day, although some variable lighting conditions.

Hi Steve
Unusual markings on the navy wildcat.
Any one know of any more marked like that?

Is the Agusta based there?

Wasn’t this at Shawbury?

Again any one help

Hi Dave

Scuba11 is correct indeed one of two for Philippine Navy the other being ZZ550 both operating out of Yeovil.
The A109 ZR324 is now operating with Cobham Helicopter Academy at Newquay along with ZR325.

The Griffin has now gone back to being military. Its civil registration G-BXIR was cancelled on 18/12/2018.
