6 Apache seen going West over Mansfield 1500 local on Sunday 25th Nov. Any origin/destination known? Seems unusal for a Sunday

4 ship in to Blackpool airport for re-fuel on Sunday afternoon, I believe.
Apparently, Manchester police will be using them against moped thieves.....

Had a nice chat with the crew of the one Apache that nightstopped in Blackpool yesterday and a close up look at their machine - thoroughly nice chaps and an awesome piece of kit. Their training itinerary for that afternoon included much of Northern England over a period of hours!

FARP forward party is my guess based on the article comments about what the Wildcats bring.
