Wasso Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 Okay yesterday..... And now today..... These choppers come along, slowly in formation, circle and hover in the positions photographed. Is it chopper training? Surveillance? They're bored? I'm really curious as to what they're up to Quote

Wasso Fixed that for you Back in Whitchurch/Kingsclere, we used to get the Chinooks, Typhoons and Lynx's doing their training stuff most days. One of the guys in the office knows a Chinook crew member, so they would buzz our office .... really low Quote

Wasso Posted August 23, 2012 Author Posted August 23, 2012 Well done MC! Crazy if you ask me then. Might bang out some drum and bass as they pass overhead to confuse them! Quote

4RE Leather Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 Okay yesterday..... And now today..... These choppers come along, slowly in formation, circle and hover in the positions photographed. Is it chopper training? Need you ask Ian? Did you not ask for some big guns for a shoot out!!! Surveillance? They're bored? I'm really curious as to what they're up to Quote
Wasso Posted August 23, 2012 Author Posted August 23, 2012 Problem is Peter all they got is a trombone and clarinet, not exactly gun power. Quote

stubzie83 Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 Where I work in Crawley, I quite often see two Apache gunships come over. I have no idea why as I'm fairly certain Gatwick airport isn't a military base just yet! Quote
Keyser Posted August 23, 2012 Posted August 23, 2012 OK thats Random - I would never have guessed Quote
4RE Leather Posted August 24, 2012 Posted August 24, 2012 I once successfully claimed £500 against BA for Vortex because Concord cracked the wall of my Garage when I lived on Hounslow Heath. You could try the same approach! Quote
