Looks like another police machine is down according to the first report posted by the Daily Telegraph but an update to this report a short while later says Humberside's Oscar 99 is not involved.

Indeed it now does say that. As explained from my edit above, the Telegraph has updated their first report and the new version is the one you are now seeing on the link.

Helicopter Down off Flamborough
It's reported that police & coastguard confirm that a helicopter has crashed at Flamborough Head in East Yorkshire.
Let's hope for good news of those on board.

Helicopter down...
Our friends at The Press have just posted this, updated at 17:05.
Helicopter crashes into sea off Yorkshire - first witness reports - rescue underway - 5.05pm UPDATE (From York Press)
Privately owned, flight originated from Scotland not Durham Tees Valley is previously reported.
Air Ambulance attended however, services were not required.
Very sad :-(

Edinburgh to Gamston for fuel and then onward to Manston apparently, but as Manston's closed I'd assume elsewhere.
RIP
