2 x military helicopters west on Thames

Post by leestorer » Wed Feb 13, 2019 10:08 pm

Hi all

Is anyone able to or know of any resources where I can identify the two military helicopters heading west low level down the Thames around Chelsea at 21:20 on 13th Feb 2019?

They looked like single rotas - possibly EH10s??

Thanks

lee

Have checked my Mode-s database, and nothing was showing at that time, so it is unlikely they will ever be known. They were probably RN and these very rarely show on mode-s. You can try checking the serials and airfield logs on this forum in case anyone reported them.
There are many flight tracking sites, ADSB Exchange is one of the better ones. Which you can use for live flights.

Or they could possibly be Pumas, that do quite a bit of after hours and city flying, and in pairs? don't know for sure these were them but it's a viable option.
