Big thanks to Wokka crew that just went over my stately pile, 1 mile north of Mendlesham RT mast (Wattisham MATZ).

Weather is calm today, so I should be able to get the roof tiles back on before the next storm.

Oh yes, the complaint..... Insufficent low flying in these parts :ugh:

More please :D

Agreed, Odiham's finest appear to have become a tad tentative round these parts lately.

Up here in West Cumberland haven't seen anything in months, other than the air ambulance.

I think the RAF have maxed out their fuel card or something?

You're more than welcome to head over East Anglia way aswell! In particular Norfolk.

So secret that is was flying around like that, above a university campus with thousands of students around and posted on YouTube.

Then there are these pics from Jan 2011

That first video of the WZ-10 looked like a Wessex in side profile from a distance!

Here's an example of how to train for armed scout/recce on a budget:
