Very cool!

I remember my old man taking us kids round Gannet and the sea kings for a tour back in the day.

I'll be looking out for 'em

Looks like they did a warm up today.

Two went past my window (Gourock) at around 12 followed by a single at around 2.

Yep, I saw the two of them as well, although we did not get the flypast yesterday.

This morning, there was an absolute racket outside, it was one of the new ones doing a flypast for the local primary school kids. Apparently a "friend" of someone at the school had called Gannet and said that we missed them, and they said leave it with is. Pretty soon we had one of the new ones pay a visit! (We are probably about 1 minutes flying time from the base)

Looks like they re out on a call right now!
