Robinson R44 N393N flew into Thruxton again from West Meon for fuel on Friday.

Saturday PM "Osprey 62" was heard on radio, an AS355 arriving after doing some kind of survey of the railway line to the west, drop off 2 pax, then onto Fairoaks. It returned to Thruxton from Fairoaks around midday Sunday, presumably to pick up pax & survey again.

I saw N500SY (you really can't miss this) when driving on Saturday to the south of Andover, then heard it departing low level from Thruxton Sunday midday as "Air Medina 05". Given it's type, it's location around the southern side of Andover & penchant for low level flying, I would guess it's being leased\hired by George Rolls & being flown out of Hoplands Farmhouse at Kings Somborne.

Sunday also heard EC120 G-DEVL inbound to Thruxton from the west (probably it's new base of Compton Abbass), then flew out to Denham around midday again.
