They usually send some hawk T2s down as 4sqn once operated from Odiham,in the past I’ve seen some frontliner types but of late it’s becoming a rareity,I’ve seen that the HAAF are sending a beaver,scout and an auster but apart from that I can’t see anything else that’s been confirmed.
May the skies be clear and blue and the wind fair with a guiding star to steer by.

Heard "Titan 1 to 5" but only one I could identify on ADSB was ZH775 Titan 1 MB

According to Live-Military-Mode-S.eu:

Titan1 [43C4D9] Chinook HC.6A ZH775
Titan2 [43C5F8] Chinook HC.5 ZH901
Titan3 [43C4C6] Chinook HC.6A ZA679
Titan4 [43C7D5] Chinook HC.6 ZK558
Titan5 [43C4D2] Chinook HC.4 ZA711

It also shows Titan6 [43C2AD] Puma HC.2 ZJ954 but not sure if this was at Odiham or not?

Thanks both of you. Much appreciated I could definately identify ZK558 and ZH775 and was fairly certain of ZA679. Thought possibly ZA677 was another. Unsure whether 4, 5 or 6 were flying. ZH901 is required so shame I didn't id that one. One Chinook I could not identify, despite numorous photos, had a replacement or repainted panel at low level on the rear port side.

ZH775 also performed the solo routine. ZK558 and ZK559 performed the role demo mid afternoon.

Puma XJ954 was reported arriving in another thread. It departed at 11:18.
