For those already missing their lynx ‘fix’, ZZ389 is up and heading out of Yeovil using call sign ‘Marine 11’

Yep, ZZ389's an AW159 Wildcat not a Lynx.

Unless, of course, the 'ZZ' is an RC-135, Shadow R1, C-17 or Voyager..... :wink: :lol:
( Think the Avenger T1s are 'ZZ' as well, aren't they ? )

Hmm, I thought it was obvious in the context of the thread, but clearly not! Ambiguity removed...

When considering if a serial you have seen on a Mode-S/ADS-B tracking website with the type code of "LYNX", which was presumably the case in the initial post; anything ZZ is a Wildcat. ZE and ZG are Lynx AH.9s. :up:
