White Bell helicopter 24/02/2021

Passing through Maghull today, saw an all white Bell 412(huey)doing heavy lifting in Lunt near where the River Alt burst its banks. Did not appear on ads-b/freedar or fr24. Any ideas on the reg guys?

It could be G-UHGB

Not sure if there is another one registered in the UK, but they have used a German one in the past

G-BIGB - Bell 212 flying again today, think this is your one.

Sequence of photos shows what has been going on here all week. Lifting fill to seal the breach in the River Alt bank near Lunt Meadows:

I think their work here is done now as I saw it flying off in a NE direction mid-afternoon
