Here's a quick picture of us tasking in Otterburn. More will hopefully follow when I get them from the lads

Land on....and wait...

They were 2 Para and 5th Scots Guards I believe.

Watching the Chinook boys come back from some breif tasking...

As you can see from the 'ginners' weather it wasn't easy getting into Otterburn!

That sums up that place rather well Tom, I seldom had anything but that sort of weather there or that awful 'welsh camp' ;-) , I am sure you now that one too!

Otterburn is just like Brecon, the second you walk on those pressure pads moving in to the Training Area the rain moves in within seconds!

If not I am sure I have seen the Colour Sergeants doing the "Rain Dance" as is their 'DS' privilage!!

Great shots.
