Any help with the Merlin ( depart around 08.30 ) & Typhoons c/s Psycho 25 + one ( departed early ) would be very helpful.

Just to tidy this up a bit, they are not P3s, yes I know they look like one, they are the CP-140 Aurora in Canadian service

Bluetail,

Yes, lazy me .

Your Merlin was infact the HM Coastguard AW-189 from Inverness which diverted in some time around 0200 due to weather at base. Believe it was G-MCGP.

Many thanks for clearing that up.
I saw it in the distance from Silver Sands.

Both aircraft have the Block IV upgrade with BLOS Satcom … could they be CP-140M.
