Helicopter gunship over the M25
Discussion
Driving anti clockwise around the North of the M25 at around 15:10 this afternoon and a gunship I was unable to identify flew overhead. It basically followed the course of the road at I guess around 1000 feet.
My initial thought was AH64, but the fuselage seemed wider and the tail looked wrong. It did have mast mounted sites though.
Does anyone know what it might have been?

It will have been an AH64 the Army Air Corps operate them. The fusalage pods do make them look quite wide from below.My initial thought was AH64, but the fuselage seemed wider and the tail looked wrong. It did have mast mounted sites though.

We've just had one come over very low and fast (as fast as they go) here in Edenbridge, heading west. I've seen them quite often along the M25 corridor and when I was doing some surveying tests at Odiham the odd one popped in for a touch and go.
One flew over us yesterday near Middle Wallop & it was extremely low (although didn't land at Middle Wallop)& was heading west. It was huge!!!robemcdonald said:
So I'm driving up the A5183 today at 15:49 and what do I see?
This time it was definitely an WAH64 / AH1 / whatever they're called this week. Flying at about 500 feet heading roughly towards harpenden.
Do I need to be worried?
It's abviously following you! Not typed in any "dodgy" words within a txt message recently have you? This time it was definitely an WAH64 / AH1 / whatever they're called this week. Flying at about 500 feet heading roughly towards harpenden.
