Was there a couple of helicopters out of Abingdon, possibly Gazelles? Seen at Millets Farm (Abingdon) today in the distance a pair of these (what looked like Gazelles) doing what looked like some sort of airshow practice, they some synchronised turns and throwing them about

Have a feeling the Gazelle Squadron have some/all their aircraft based at a private site somewhere between Millets(Kingston Bagpuize) and Abingdon

From friends that live nearby I don't think there was any activity at Abingdon on the 26th

Same from what I've also heard. Only a C130 used Weston-on-the-Green later that evening but no C17 move at Abingdon.
