Sea King over WGC today?

Post by PirateTrickster »

Hi all,

Just seen a Sea King (with what looked like an AEW dome on the side) fly over Welwyn Garden City in East Herts. I thought they'd been retired (aside from the 2 last year which were resurrected to help train the German Navy). Almost certain I'm not hallucinating. Can anyone shed any light?

Cheers,

If I'd known I would have been on the top deck of the Galleria car park with my camera!
