Hi Otto,
Thanks for posting. I was wondering if we might be able to catch those birds flying alongside the Dutch coast tomorrow. Do you know if they RTB after De Kooy or maybe continue to the UK?
Many thanks and best regards,

That's Manston? Thanks a lot. I guess it will be very well possible that they fly south along the coastline to make a hop over the channel near Belgium. Will keep an eye out on the coast!

Hello Arjan,
Mostly helicopters that fly from de Kooy to Manston fly the shortest route. That route is over water in a straight line to Manston.
I try to ask the crew and let you know.
