Battersea...It's been a while (large post)

Post by TH1213 »

Hi all,

Been a while since my last Battersea update, the last few went down well so I thought I would post some recent movements. The first 3 movements are from Cheltenham Gold Cup day, the rest are from recent trips! Some rare visitors include the EC145 T2 and the standard EC145 M-ONDE. In between these movements there were some military visitors which I shall post in the Mil forum.

Hope you enjoy,

Thomas

every time I see your pics, I say to myself I must go and spend a day there but I suspect there are many days when not a lot happens. Brilliant shots as usual.

I'd advise you to visit, certainly a great place when busy but like you say some days you can be very bored :grin:
If you're going to visit I'd suggest going on one of the heliport's 'event' days, that way you're guarenteed some action!

Superb light on that last one. Cool to see EI-GJL - I caught her at Shawbury on the 2nd or 3rd of October last year. Nice looking bird.
