Out with Tomo on Manta Ray this afternoon conducting some trials following a modification to the hull. In the distance we could see a coastguard helicopter circling around. After steaming for a few minutes the helicopter 'buzzed' us. Thinking nothing of it we continue steaming only to get buzzed again. By now it was obvious something was going on. So I went out on deck and looked up, only to see a crewman holding up a board with 67 written on it. We now tune the radio to channel 67 and are immediately called up by the helicopter and asked if we would mind taking part in a training exercise. Well you don't refuse such a request and so are asked to steam west at a steady 10 knots. We were then privileged to be treated to the following spectacle. Very exciting stuff.
