Voyager at Hurn (bournemouth)?

Post by Stroudy » Tue Oct 09, 2012 4:33 pm

Was at the east end of hurn runway this afternoon and saw, through the mist and rain, what looked like a yellow pre-del scheme voyager shutting down behind one of the smaller cobham hangars. Guess its there for AAR installation work?

EC-335 CASA016 looks to be out of Hurn on a test this morning. Currently flying a racetrack pattern at 13000 ft off the Norfolk coast.

It is in fact MRTT018 which was until recently EC-331,and was outside for engine runs. Neither of the two from Bournemouth have flown since arriving for conversion.MRTT016 was,as far as I know,operating out of Boscombe Down as usual when over here,and is grey,not primered like the 2 here.
