These were not seen at Leeming today but somwhere else, but may help tie up sightings to reg's

Chinooks ZA674 no code. ZA680-AH, has a rescue winch fitted at starboard crew door.
Pumas XW223, this is the aircraft with the bigger main gear fairings. XW235, has the racks and equipment installed on the rear fuselage.
Merlin ZJ992-AB
Sea King ZE425-WR, Arctic Camo

All serials and codes confirmed from pics taken of aircraft. Also seen an Apache and a Lynx 7. Have a confirmed sighting of a Lynx reg XZ191, from a photo, not mine, taken near the same location much later, but don't know if it was part of the exercise.

Hope this is of some help.
No one gets out of life alive.



Equipment: Camera, Lens, Goretex Y fronts
