Some rare treats at Battersea

Post by TH1213 »

Hi all,

Another Battersea post from me (are you bored yet? :grin: ). The heliport has seen some nice visitors recently including the AW169 making the type's first visit this afternoon! Two S92's have also recently visited including the rare A7-MBN, both a great sight.

Hopefully you'll enjoy and feel free to have a nose at my Flickr if interested in the other images I won't bother to post!

The 92's certainly are big machines! Yes LCFC does belong to Leicester City's Owner, it's only recently been repainted into Leicester colours. I believe he allows it to be chartered out as well, as it was on this occasion. It was very busy during the football season though, it often dropped and picked him up from the centre of the pitch.
