Helicopter operations at Altcar before the first snow

Support helicopters have been operating in and around Altcar Training Camp and the beach area. It was anticipated by the RAF that noise levels would increase within the period stated (13-18 January 2019) and at varying times throughout each day.

Chinooks this morning against a cold dull sky, just before the first snow flurry arrived.
