RAF Chinook pair over Rugby last hour

Any idea why a pair of HC2s would be flying around Rugby , in tactical formation and circling the town, as I have just seen in the last hour?

They were also crisscrossing each other as well.

Smile Mein Gott!

Crisscrossing?! Surely Odiham haven't finally swallowed their pride and reinstingated battle formation have they? They'll want to do fighter evasion next!

Chopper,

They might have be visiting Rugby school, it tends to be a reasonable place for school visits with loads of real estate. Alternatively they could have been taking royalty for another jollie!!
