RNAS Yeovilton visit 13/10/15

[graham]

Had a call at Sparkford so when done, shot down to Yeovilton for an hour. Very little visible or identifiable from the Museum car park so drove down the lane to Yeovilton village and drove down past the church to the crash gate which gives a great view across the aprons. Five Wildcats that I could see, but only 3 were ID-able, loads of Lynxes, faired a bit better and could ID 8 via codes but still 3 or 4 I couldn't make out. There were also 3 or 4 Sea Kings with their rotors folded up, tail on and impossible to ID and 2 Merlins, equally un-ID-able. Even so, I made 10 in total which is very pleasing as I'm rather light on Navy choppers.
