More bonkers guidance. Open cockpits only. I thought this was a joke. Also, you can only drive your Blower Bentley or Fraser-Nash to the aero club https://t.co/wWeooWBTeD

Last week @HeliOperations paid @vantageaviation a rather welcome visit in their Westland Sea King HU.5SAR

The #ChinookForce continues to train across the UK to prepare our aircrew for operations both in the UK and overseas.

Our current flying window is from 0900 to 0300 hrs which allows for the extended daylight hours.

Finally made a trip down to @HeliOperations last week, I certainly didn't leave disappointed.

Nothing better than walking about @visitlondon capturing images of the city, well unless of course you have an @RAF_Odiham based @18Squadron @BoeingDefense Chinook flying the heli-lanes, as Cpl Travis & SAC Hopkins did tonight...

This airframe was based at Odiham for a few years of its service before becoming a permanent fixture in 1985 having previously served with @230SqnRAF.

It's been another busy week @27_Sqn, ending with a proficiency check for two of our crewmen. Thanks to @SeanMcRandle and @LiamNWilson for these images of our crew dropping into several confined clearings on Friday. Both passed with flying colours so can now enjoy the weekend!

[RAF Odiham @RAF_Odiham]

Some great shots yesterday of @18Squadron and @27_Sqn out and about conducting confined landing away from the airfield. @StnCdrRAFOdiham @AlGillespieRAF @ComdJHC
Thanks to @SeanMcRandle for sharing.

7 helicopters for 7 guns - watch @Airbornegunners practise a battery raid, using the pace and reach of @RAF_Odiham Chinook and @RAFBenson Puma 🚁 to lift their guns and outmanoeuvre the enemy.
