Just to clear things up, this exercise ignores the Bank Holiday every year and usually begins the day before. It also includes all the weekends in between.

Should be departing 19.00 local if prior information was correct.

[Unknown74]

I enquired on the wrong thread last night as to wether anyone could ID MACHETE 1 the Apache I saw over Edinburgh en-route Leuchars yesterday evening?

Also is MACHETE 2 around? Wondered why 1& 2 weren’t up together?

[AIROPPS]

Machete 1 arrived around 10:15 showing as ZJ197 .
