Thanks Alan that's perfect, only thing I am short of is 2z Merlin in the maintenance hangar that faces the viewing area but I doubt that was in the public area of the airshow?

thanks

The merlin on the dummy deck is a EMU.
an "E"ngineers "M"ock "U"p. It has no rotor head or drive train fitted. It's does have a manufacturer number which I think is AV511? ? But I could be wrong.??
But here it is. Image

Harrier nose is XV786/123. And C-130J was indeed ZH873 ;)

1 would have been the display Merlin which was ZH832,

The other 3 Merlins were for the Flypast which were ZH857, ZH832 and ZH827.

Also forgot all about this one.
Boing Scan eagle RM1 UAV. reg SE001. was on display over by the air cadets stand.
Wasn't sure if the serial was real or not. But quick search of the net showed it is :thumb:
Another one for us number crunchers. Lol.
