Navy Wings Night Shoot 5, RNAS Yeovilton, 16 October 2019
Navy Wings Night Shoot 5, RNAS Yeovilton, 16 October 2019
I went to the 5th Night Shoot at RNAS Yeovilton last night. Once again, the event was hosted by the Fly Navy Heritage Trust, and organised by Threshold.aero.
6 aircraft were positioned on the South Dispersal, outside of the FNHT hangar. These were a Swordfish, Sea Fury, Chipmunk, Wasp, Wildcat and Merlin. The Wasp, Wildcat and Merlin all spent a time with their rotors turning.
With night flying underway at Yeovilton, light trails were added to our photos as the personnel on the base continued their activities during the event.
Here are a selection of my photos from the evening:

C&C appreciated.

Hi Roger,
As mentioned on the group, you got some belters!! Merlin on here is the stand out one for me, well caught
Nice that you had good weather too and some decent aircraft!
See you soon.
