Thanks Paddy, just managed to arrive in time, a back wind up from Yeovil got him to the field much quicker than I thought
I believe the Polish Merlins route through Norwich for their 'gas and coffee' stop from Yeovil, if you get the chance.

Pleased you managed to see it Jim D, no problem at all with using my shots.

I guess the hour from Yeovil to Humberside acts as a good acceptance test flight for the Norwegian crew before the three hour venture over open sea to Stavanger !
I must say that this Norwegian 'Rescue' paint job does make the paint scheme on Humberside based Bristow S-92's for our Coastguard Rescue look a bit drab.
Thanks to all for the comments, and pleased that you enjoyed these
