Re: Apaches
The all white King air will be G-LBSB

Re: Apaches
Unless it has changed very recently, G-LBSB is all-over grey, similar to the Shadows.

Re: Apaches
G-LBSB was all white at Coningsby last Thursday if it helps.

Re: Apaches
Does G-LBSB carry any sort of sensor fit?, what is her role? and why the civvy reg.?, never quite found out how she fits into the Shadow set-up.
Re: Apaches
I think its a trainer for the shadows
Re: Apaches
Thanks mdobuk21, that was my thought, but one never assumes anything with these secret squirrel types !

Re: Apaches
A Chinook went over the house here in Ripon at Dusk heading towards Leeming.
Re: Apaches
That could have been the one I heard moving south to the East of Thirsk at about 9 to 9.30 this evening.
Re: Apaches - Friday
Four on the deck 0800 this morning.
Two departed south at 1045L and the other two at 1135L.
ZJ184 confirmed by eye (scope) in the second pair. Light too bad for the others.
Sorry, I don't have the callsigns.
anybody have any more details?
