Chinook over Liverpool

Chinook just overflew house, felt the vibrations inside, knew what it was before I saw it, heading north west, looks to be heading towards Alder Hey Children's hospital. In other circumstances, could we have more please.

Think it must have been the same one that flew nice and low up the beach at Fleetwood heading north about 1850. Nice to see as always

Don't think so, seen them a couple of times heading in the direction of Alder Hey, one of the best childrens hospitals in the UK, normally they would route up the river. May have picked up a medical team for a paediatric retrieval. If so good luck and God speed.

Regards.

Probably, but they're not worth the effort really...

No choice really, they are unlikely to have heard of Goodison!

Home Bargains have a distribution depot in Scouseland. Perhaps the crew were out job hunting to try to find secure employment for the months ahead.
