I had to travel up to the Cairnryan to Larne ferry on Saturday 29th and couldn't quite believe my luck that the Dutch choppers would all be on the deck - right time, right place !
Unfortunately, the weather, as I got nearer to Carlisle, got darker and darker - it was the only poor weather day in the last 10 days I think! Anyway, took a couple of shots with the big lense from over by the Vulcan and then managed to surreptitiously sidle into the terminal area and take a few through the crash gate to the left of the terminal. Most of the latter were of the back end of the choppers, so really are nowt more that record shots, but thought I would upload them for interests sake.
BTW....couldn't believe how many Dutch Army trucks and vehicles there were in the terminal car park. There must be nearly the whole Dutch army sleeping in portakabins there atm !!!
