Sounds like a busy night. The 202 guys just woke me up coming back to Boulmer a few moments ago.
Touching wood that all onboard the helicopter in question are ok and in good hands.

The Northern Echo picture shows a Puma
The Northern Echo has published a phot of an RAF Puma to illustrate its article http://www.thisisthenortheast.co.uk/index.php, They have been advised that this is an RAF aircraft. Iwish they would get their facts right think of the distress that it causes to the families of both Army AIr Corps and those of the Puma crews

OMG...
We were tasking right next to them earlier this evening, we left at 20:30 as they were walking to their aircraft (no, I won't be posting the type until it's general knowledge).
My fingers are crossed that they and their passengers are all OK...
