Just arrived into Edinburgh for a quick fuel stop is 02918 1 of the MH-47 of the 160th SOAR with the 2nd airframe flying onwards

Not staying long edit looks like it may have a tech issue now

Sure most will be aware but Blackout 21+22 arrived back into Edinburgh this evening for a quick rotors running visit before departing back to Leuchars shortly after

Was the morning visit for fuel and the afternoon pair for a pax drop off.

Was supposed to be a splash of fuel and a pax pick up but believe the pax were late arriving hence the delay

Saw them overhead This Morning Southbound... Plus around the same time an Apache going North.

The Apache was showing as ZM734 but it's not been visually confirmed yet.

Ok cheers Mike, thank you.

Saw them too, but no Apache.

Around the same time, single aircraft a few miles apart were making contrail circles at altitude over East Lothian. Spotted 2, making the circular contrails, but there may have been 3 as a third fading circle was visible. No idea of type.

Just had at least one chinook pass to the east of hawick heading north
