Poseidon 806 has subtle changes in the colour scheme compared to rest of earlier arrivals. Also does not have a black nose radome at present so should be able to identify. Thanks to locals for posting photos of its arrival.

Ok I'd spotted the radome but my spot the difference skills must need some polishing, what else is different? Code on the front larger, maybe?

Noticeable difference between upper and lower fuselage paintwork Upper is lighter shade ,lower is a darker grey but subtle. Above cockpit an area is same as lower fuselage paint.

Hi there,

My log taken at teatime.

P-8`s ZP801 , 802 , 805 & 806.

Typhoons ZK434 , 425 , 334 , 301 , 424 & 337.

Wildcats ZZ399 , 403 & 521 arrived. Serials take from Lossie photos & Scotavnet . Call sign was possibly Marine 11 ( formation).

Before their departure a Chinook was seen from the North routing towards Burghead in the distance .
Serial possibly ZA680 / Titan43 which was noted earlier on FR24.

Hope this is of use .

Ian
