Late activity near Cheltenham

Hi all,

Had a mad 20 minutes of action near Cheltenham from about 22.15.

Started with a pair of Hetcs heading low level for Brize.

Then we had a low helicopter heading East over Chelt.

Then several helicopters circling East of Cheltenham.

Is there a night exercise on?
Coincidently spotted lots of bright torches on Cleeve Hill, possibly connected....

Regards
Briank

Hiya Brian
sounded busy at Ashchurch about the same time, sounded like a chopper (Poss Merlin, def not a wokka or Puma ) in the camp, NVG training perhaps?
Also heard a C130 rumbling around too.
