Apache landing Thursday 25/6

Post by reds1966 » Thu Jun 25, 2020 12:59 pm

Just landing from Wattisham is Gunship 2 an a single Apache, reported as ZJ195 on the tracking sites. Seen to the south-west of Cosford but no chance of reading the serial from the photo I managed the get.

Left at 15.30 to east.

A second Apache using the callsign Hunter 2 departed at 14.20 routing down the River Severn to the South. Visually confirmed as a single Apache, 360Radar reported it as ZJ199. Missed it arriving.

I assume it was these two which flew over Leicester yesterday morning probably around 1115am in a SE to NW direction.

Unlikely they flew together with two different callsigns. As both hunter and gunship were reported as ‘2’ both were possibly in flights of two, although both not necessarily showing on tracking sites.
