Took off to do what exactly?

After over a month this is little more than a flag waving exercise akin to sending an aircraft out to a natural disaster to get the roundel on tv and a bit of positive press for UK plc.

Of course, it's also another string to Sentinel's bow that might save it from the chop in 2018 if it can be proven to be good in multiple environments and not just open battlefields. In this instance however, I would be very interested to see what it turns up.
