09:40 Irish Air Corps AW139 just passing PEPOD heading NE at 800 ft.  Should pass off Ballyquintin at the southern tip of the Ards Peninsula around 09:45.

Has gone inland at 09:50, approaching Millisle.  To EGAC perhaps?  Nope, following the coast towards Ballycastle.

10:30 all the way around the north coast and now crossing the Foyle towards Donegal

I currently see one operating at Carrickfinn/Donegal.  Possibly the same one heading off again after lunch.

Aha, mystery solved!  Good find.

The helicopter involved was serial 275.

13:10 Passing south of Smudge Manor at FL200 is BE20 G-IASA, but apparently not on a regular medical flight...

CLB is Cobham Flight Inspection.  Callsign... CALIBRATOR.  I like that :)

CLB99 on the way back to Teeside.

Just noticed the squawk was 0024, which according to this page:

http://www.flightradars.eu/squawkcodes.html

is reserved for Radar Flight Evaluation/Calibration.  Which makes sense with the pattern they were flying, but odd that they were using G-IASA instead of their own BE20s.

A photo of the actual aircraft here:

Pretty!  To my eye the IV was the last good-looking Gulfstream before they all went a bit lardy.

The Mexican one was out of Zürich this evening.  Looks like he's heading home after coming over to Europe on the 19th; staged through Gatwick when eastbound.
