Another group is reporting an S-92 under wraps with an id request.
They`re not my cup-of-tea but somebody else may want to take a look?

Noted at 12.00. Not under wraps per say - dismantled for shipping (no rotors fitted) with just windows covered, all over white with reg taped over.

As Wadoki said - the heads up courtesy of another Group - it was still there at 1400 hrs, but its identity may remain unknown ?  S92 @ Docks by MARTIN CHELL, on Flickr |

Interesting - Just a novice question - I would assume that something of that size is too big to transport by road? so would assume flown in (Not spotted?) - rather if roaded in it would have thought it might have been spotted somewhere en route.
If inbound it will soon become clear.
Either way if outbound given the number of eyes out there would love to know from where it has come and what its identity is
Am sure in due course someone will fill in the gaps.

No set agenda for helicopters at Seaforth, the RAF Chinooks were prepared by Boeing crews and flown out (there is a helipad at Seaforth).
A Sikorsky S-92 will fit on a low loader, the last time I was at Aberdeen one was delivered in by road from Southampton Docks.
As it is on the ACL berth I would assume it is inbound from the USA .... time will tell, and hopefully it will be identified.
