Narrative:
We were cleared to fly a heading to avoid a flight of 2 MTR's. After reporting these aircraft in sight 'at 1-2 O'clock position and 5 mi,' we were cleared to follow them on a visibility approach to myr. After leaving 3000' in the descent we were notified of 'unknown' traffic at 1 O'clock position. Then, I saw another flight of 2 MTR's at 11 O'clock and took evasive action by pulling up and go around power.
