Low-Level flight with the Royal Navy-Commando Helicopter Force Merlin-Exercise Merlin Vortex 2015
Показать описание
The Royal Navy's Commando Helicopter Force (CHF) is one of the world's premier fighting forces. Working closely with the Royal Marines they have built up a formidable 'Can Do' reputation.
Now in the final stages of the transition from Sea King HC.4 to, ultimately the Merlin HC.4, CHF are at the forefront of any UK expeditionary force.
This video was filmed back in 2015 during exercise 'Merlin Vortex', which involved two Merlin Mk3 helicopters, four trainee aircrews and a support staff of over 40 personnel, supported 3 Commando Brigade and other Land Force elements.
Exercise Merlin Vortex is the final phase of the Merlin Operational Conversion Force (OCF) training course. It is the culmination of the students flying training which tests their tactical flying abilities.
Filmed from the rear of the aircraft, it follows the pair of Merlin as they fly low-level to Bickleigh Barracks in Devon, where they conduct underslung load lifting training, followed by a low-level flight back to their Forward Operating Base (FOB) at Rollestone Camp on Salisbury Plain.

This video is in association with The Peoples's Mosquito. It's a great charity organisation which are working hard to bring a deHavilland Mosquito back to airworthy condition.
All of us here at MATV wish them all the very best for the future.
