There are two VH-60's and two CH-47D's doing familiarisation flights around London from Northolt and Stansted ready for a certain chap to turn up at Stansted.

Thanks for that. I've never heard a Black Hawk before, so I excuse myself for not recognising it. It may explain why I only saw its navigation lights. even though it was only at 1,000ft:eek:

Slightly off-thread but look what turned up at my daughters' riding school this afternoon (en route from Wattisham to take part in the forthcoming firepower demo at SPTA). Thanks for the demo guys.

I bet the photo shoot wasn't in the plan. In the modern age with Digital cameras and the internet, there isn't any privacy any more, you can't keep anything from the RQHI!
