Also this morning x2 Typhoons departed around 7.30am

ASCOT 9531 & 32

9531 which was ZK432 got as far as the south coast of England before it returned at 9.30am, I assume it was an air spare for additional aircraft heading to the east. No idea what was 9532.

ZM151 has a full colour Phoenix on the tail and is coded 809. Sadly the decals will be removed before it flies.

So was it the real ZM151 or the replica that appeared at RIAT 2023 which also carried ZM151

It was the real one.

Thanks

ZK439 was the other and I can confirm ZK314 as well.

Yes a Nymrod SAR aircraft was quietly dispatched to be in the right place should the Royal transport get into trouble. Thankfully it has as yet to be called on. This was also done in earlier years using Shackltons. The lucky crews went all around the world and were often treated to fabulous hospita...
