Hi there,

First chance for some time at the fence since arrival last week.

Noted today were as follows from md morning ,

P-8 -- ZP802 , 803 , 804 , 805 , 806 , 807 , 808 & 809.
804 was outside the big hangar.
Typhoon -- ZJ917 , 923 , 939 .
ZK301 , 320 , 362 , 378 , 425 , 427 , 439.
P-3 -- 140118 ( RCAF ) , I think this arrived late Friday PM.

Also ( civvies ) G-IASM Be200 & G-BSCP Ce152.

Any help with the Merlin ( depart around 08.30 ) & Typhoons c/s Psycho 25 + one ( departed early ) would be very helpful.

Hope this is of use, IAN.

Just to tidy this up a bit, they are not P3s, yes I know they look like one, they are the CP-140 Aurora in Canadian service
I do what the voices in my head tell me to do!!!!

Your Merlin was infact the HM Coastguard AW-189 from Inverness which diverted in some time around 0200 due to weather at base. Believe it was G-MCGP.

Both aircraft have the Block IV upgrade with BLOS Satcom … could they be CP-140M.
