Large Chinook helicopters flew over Scotland, causing homes in Glasgow to “shake.” It was part of a military training exercise.
RAF Lossiemouth shared some info earlier. They said Chinooks plus Pumas would train. This would happen across Scotland from February 6 to 21. It included the Central Belt, Tayside, and Highlands areas. The RAF warned everyone about low-flying helicopters.
People in Fife also reported seeing big aircraft. Flight data showed a helicopter went from Cumbernauld to Edinburgh. That was around 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday evening. Someone in Glasgow said it seemed unusual.
They think it was just training exercises. Another person said their flat shook. Someone else thinks it was Operation Secure the Skies training.
RAF Lossiemouth confirmed the training dates again. It is from February 6 to 21 at Leuchars Aerodrome. Helicopters will fly in many locations. This includes the Central Belt and Highlands. They may fly at low altitudes sometimes. They might also fly at irregular times. The RAF thanked people for their support.
