Re: Apaches at Sennybridge

Oh yeah I missed that there was a third behind as #2 wasn't pinging very much - looks like all 3 were on SENTA together in the end for a little bit, but #3 did loiter and follow on 30 mins behind once again to Sleap. Unsure what the easterly heading one was

ZM705 and ZM729 were operating as Gunship 1 and 3 and went through the Usk Valley at 1500 approx. Looks like they came from Gloucester and ended up at Sleap
