ZK001 Navy Merlin Grantham OTT 16.40 hours 16.11.21

Hi,
Can anyone please confirm that the above Merlin noted OTT Grantham at 16.40 hours 16.11.21 travelling in a southerly direction is as per Flightradar24 ZK001. Could anyone also please confirm mark and current squadron allocation if possible and finally can anyone help where it has been today as it was noted early this morning travelling northwards over Grantham.

Many thanks

Yes, it is feeding correctly although I believe Flightradar still has it as a HC.3A.

It is now a Merlin HC.4A, coded AF and was calling Commando57 which means it is with 846NAS. No idea where it had been but at a guess, probably Holbeach
