Might not be the same aircraft, but three Royal Navy Sea Kings arrived at RAF Lossiemouth this evening. It was too dark to read serials but the codes were O, U and J.

From that then possibly ZD480/J seen as the formation leader and pinging, ZF118/O and ZA295/U

Needs confirmation

Hi,

Can confirm they are ZA295/U, ZD480/J and ZF118/O.

They landed at Linton to refuel at 14:20.

ZD480 was the lead and was 'pinging' into Linton although ZF118 was the lead and 'pinging' when they went out.

Departed to Lossiemouth at 15:06 as NAVY 750
