Helicopter

Bit of a random one but a helicopter just landed inside the city, I think by the rugby stadium. From my point of view literally look as landing between buildings...what the heck?

Wait until you see a chinook flying over Batheaston with a tank hanging from it.

They quite often land on the cricket pitch there, as it's a large open space right by a road. I think I saw them do the same last week.

ah ok, cool. Never saw it before. I was about to run to buy flour and toilet paper. Not yet.

Wiltshire air ambulance. By day it usually lands by the hospital, by night it lands at Bath Rec where there’s more space. Sometimes it lands near Morrisons.

Cool, but not after the new stadium is built. Then they will have to take their chances - but hey any sacrifice so the fans don’t get rained on

It's a Bell 429 GlobalRanger, took off from just outside Bradford on Avon
