Two interesting visitors were spotted on the ramp at Weston Airport today. It's not often you see the RAF in Weston! I'm open to correction on this but maybe this is the first visit to Weston of an operational foreign military aircraft? ZJ703 is the Griffin in question. The two crews were enjoying a cup of tea together when I went into the restaurant to get that last photo. The Aer Corps often hosted the RAF, Royal Navy and Belgian Air Force on SAR exchange visits so it's good to see the tradition continuing.

They were there as part of a SAR conference that's being held in Dublin Today and Tomorrow...
If you had waited for a while you would have seen the Air Corps arrive and the CHC S-61 also...
