Four Ospreys over North London
About half an hour ago, four V22s in diamond formation flew over my garden in North London - rehearsal for Donald's visit? A pleasant change from the 737s and A320s. Fingers crossed for some of the RAF 100 tomorrow. |
Flew in via Lajes, to an airfield 'somewhere in North London'. A brace of C-17's each brought in a VH-60 helo' too.
|
Another practice flew over Tottenham at about 17.25 heading south. Two police helicopters front and back, two presumably VH-60 and a large green military helicopter. No V22s though.
|
They have been to Windsor Castle this afternoon = practice run same formation? One looked like Marine 1 white top. |

Saw the Ospreys doing solo and formation approaches (wheels down, rotors up..) to Winfield House (American Ambassador's residence in Regents Park) yesterday followed by a formation approach by a formation of Police helo, 2x VH-60s, Merlin and another police helo as tail end charlie.

Here is the formation earlier in the day passing Melksham |
Couple of Apaches heading west a few minutes ago, not the usual morning air traffic in my bit of London |
At 0910 Local whilst walking daughter's dogs in Hurlingham Park saw a 4 helicopters in line over the Thames I would guess heading West. Two helicopters in front and third was the Osprey then a smaller helo in the rear. Suppose Trump on way to Windsor?

mate says he saw a formation yesterday. Any idea why? Had to laugh, he said they were drones! |

At 1050 today 4 x V22s overflew Cornwall heading just south of west at about 8,000'. I guess the same aircraft going back to the States, or at least to a flat top in the Atlantic that will take them the rest of the way home ?

Why no Grass Fires at Chequers during the operation of the Osprey's despite the many engine exhausts being pointed at the grass?
