Two Tucanos over Truro (& Sea King overhead!)

[Aircraftpaulcornwall]

Hi All,
We were up at Truro this afternoon and all of a sudden we heard a couple of strange sounding prop aircraft - I immediately thought - that's no Cessna!!
- and looked skywards to see two Tucanos flying in formation, roughly at at an estimated 1200ft immediately above Truro. This was timed at 1505Z.
Lovely to see these, as we very rarely see these down in this neck of the woods!
Incidentally, as I write this, a Sea King has just overflown here, est'd 1000ft alt moving SE/NW and vanished over the horizon (0953Z) --Paul

They came over here in Mid Devon shortly before at the same height. Get the Boscombe one a lot around here low level and used to get about 6 of the Linton based ones for several days at a time when they deployed to St Mawgan.

If you look on the Culdrose page you will find your answer!

Paul, could you stop SHOUTING in your thread-titles please?

2nd paragraph in Rule 9 :- Posts should never be made entirely with capital letters (neither should topic titles) - this is classed as shouting and is rude.

Cheers fella.

Hi Mike,
Yes, many thanks for that - I was unaware of this - I have now corrected where possible!! --Paul
