Hi all Just saw an MRH-90 fly over home heading to Whenuapai. So if anybody is near by might be worth a sqizz. Sorry I was just turning into my drive and no camera  Sorry about that it was a little hard driving and looking up at the same time while turning into the drive  . Give a guy a break ;D Correction has been made  |

Caught a fleeting glimpse of what I thought at the time looked like an NH-90 tailboom and a camouflage paint scheme making a very low, fairly quick pass south over the tarmac or runway (hard to tell from my angle). I'm talking less than 20ft of the ground.
