Sherrard // 50 years of the RAF //
I'm pretty sure that the RAF is a bit older than that.

[sherrardk]

Sorry, 50 years of the puma helicopter.

50 years of Puma in service with RAF.

Saw them here. Bang on time as well!

Ridiculous waste of fuel for a jolly, never mind the noise pollution.

How lovely. I would like to see it.

^ what a miserable response, someone got out of bed on the wrong side

[naomi24]

Diddly regularly gets out of bed on the wrong side.

[bhg481]

Diddly's bed doesn't have a right side.

FYI I have helicopters from Benson flying over me on a regular basis including when practising their infernal night-flying. They are an absolute b***** menace.

Aw, diddums!

On Flightradar there seems to be a load of them around Shrewsbury, Telford and the surrounding area at the moment. It hardly looks like a formation though.

Sorry, no. They aren't Pumas, and they show up as Defence Helicopter Flying School.
