Chinook over LHR today
Saw a Chinook circling over Heathrow today, or more precisely Harmondsworth at approx 1230. Any ideas?

I'm sure Bluejay wasn't the only person in the vicinity of Heathrow to wonder what the wokka was up to...
What's a wokka? It's just as easy to type Chinook - or is this meant to show that you're one of the boys?

It was only a simple question!
Blimey,
It was only a simple question!!!!!
@ forget - where do you get off?
Reason for asking - Mmmm let me think, it is not exactly a regular occurance to see a military helicopter operating so close to a civvie airport, above all I was curious (didn't realise it was a crime!)
Reason for posting on here - why not, it is a military aircraft after all and for some reason I thought that someone on a military aircrew forum may be able to provide some insight, after all it was not exactly covert!
forget - by the sound of it I probably have more right to post on here than you, especially as you didn't even know what a wokka was!

Below the Glidepath - not correcting
Bluejay,
Never overlook that bit at the bottom of the page;

It was probably looking for H3.
