Saw one come in for a touch and go at the HAC in the City a couple of days ago - groundsmen weren't too pleased he landed on the cricket square though....

The Lynx AH7 went out of service a while ago (2015?). I think the AAC still operate the Lynx 9A but it's been 6 years since I was involved with them.

Are they new airframes or refurbished Lynx?

A new build although they look like they've flown through ripspeed.

They were 30min late at lee on Solent but got to see them and the camera ship Merlin.

If you ask Agusta Westland (Leonardo?) they're new but there's an awful lot of Lynx carry-overs on them...
