Appeared in poor weather over the house on Friday afternoon coming from the direction of St Mawgan. Do the Royal Marines/FAA have any or are they all Army?

They are all owned by the Army Air Corps and are based at Wattisham and Middle Wallop.

There have been three at Culdrose this week. Two returned to Wattisham on Wednesday, the last one flew back on Friday.
I found a few images of one playing at Perranporth on Tuesday:

I work on the Apache at Wattisham. These are a couple of shots of a practice display over the top of our hangar last year. The images have not been rotated for effect.

Had two flights of four flyover our house at lunchtime. Normally only get pairs or four. They were heading south then turned west.

EDIT: -They flew back home past our house as a formation of 8 - impressive - just before 19:00hrs

EDITAGAIN: - Two more even lower heading west - That's 18 sightings today.

Just had two fly over very low, between 100 and 200 feet. Must be the low cloud we have this morning.

A hell of a racket caused us to go into the garden and we knew from experience what they were but again they were very low and this time there were 5!

Sadly I have failed to attach the video as it is too big and there is no software on my PC that can edit videos - shame. Hopefully this screenshot gives the idea, although the wide angle lens on my phone makes them appear quite small compared to reality.
