Lol yes great to chat, my photo probaly wont look as good as yours

Your unidentified Puma in the morning and again just before 1300 was XW198, confirmed from my photo. After hot refuellling upon arrival it departed to Catterick for some taskings, returned, refuelled, and departed to the South.

Many thanks Mike for confirmation i wondered what arrived around 13.00 as i couldnt see it arrive, now I know
