MD day....

Freshly re-painted MD500 G-OPCS departed back to Shoreham by air, so I snapped it from the car park.

MD520 G-SMAC appears to be here for a while, it was training on the field yesterday, I think it may have been using a "Bladerunner" call-sign.

MD600 G-NELY was one way ferry for crew, this was then rolled into Edmondsons for minor paint work and should stay for a couple of days.

Elsewhere on the field AS355 G-FFRI is still present, Air Ambulance normality is restored with G-NAAB back after maintenance, the usual selection of the FAST fleet such as G-OAVA, G-TOSH & G-BXKL were all on the Aeromaritime ramp. Westland Scout G-BXRR is back in the air & looking fantastic in it's original brown & green camoflague scheme, this was undergoing a CAA Air Test (always easy to spot when they climb repeatedly from 500ft to 5,500ft). Also noted, tucked away in a fixed wing hangar is AS355 G-ZITZ, which I think is a temporary resident.
