Eurocopter at ABZ?
Spotted (what looks like a eurocopter) on approach to Aberdeen around 1100L. It came across the city. Any info?

A eurocopter?
Bond, CHC and Bristow all operate Eurocopter EC225s could have been any of those, assuming that's what you meant?

Or maybe an EC135? (Of which there are also rather a lot up there!)
Re: Eurocopter at ABZ?
I've only seen 2 EC135s in my whole time up here Chris!

Re: Eurocopter at ABZ?
There's tonnes of civil ones registered to people up in that area, I wonder f they live elsewhere though
Re: Eurocopter at ABZ?
Lossie - Was it yellow? If so it could be an air ambulance EC135 which can often be seen flying into/out of Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.
Apart from that there is a whole host of Eurocopter products operating out of Aberdeen.

No no, sorry chaps. I've defo got my 'eurocopter' part wrong. I know all about the pumas and that.. I am sure I saw some kind of smaller, more military looking helicopter head into Dyce. No worries though
Cheers. Mark.

Maybe a twin squirrel? Sometimes get them through the CTA on Powerline inspections.
Or perhaps a Helimed EC135 into the ARI?
I'm assuming it wasn't a Bell Jet Ranger? Get loads of them on pipeline inspections.
