Re: king's birthday flypast rehearsal 2025
It looks to me as if you are right, according to the official document. The airshows website seems to have copied the GMT times as BST.

Re: Verifying Military Aircraft registration
No idea about cross reference but I should advise always quoting your source when posting and putting something like 'showing as...' if you have no verification.
You may find, if you study the forum, that it is often said that (for example) RAF Typhoons and USN P-8s are a particular problem.

Re: Hercs at Cambridge May 2025
One ex RAF between the hangars to the north of the tower yesterday. Is this the next to be prepared for Bangladesh? Behind it, nose on to crash gate 4 a USMC? Unreadable for me.
Note, you can no longer turn right to CG4 as they have painted a central reservation with double unbroken white lines.

Any news on the King's departure? Canadian timings suggest he can leave it till Monday morning.

Re: Exercise 5-21 May?
14:23 eastbound over Northampton at 4750' USAF Herc showing as N352MJ on FR24. Apparently from and to Mildenhall via Fairford. I suspect just an MC-130J. Any details please?

Never heard of Lightning Force but it's useful to know. No need for the second sentence. If I don't know, I don't know!

Re: Lumix FZ200 Bridge Camera
I think it's more a case of people remaining silent rather than wishing to appear rude. You really need a DSLR or mirrorless with a larger sensor for aviation. Unless your happy with record shots of course, in which case I'm sure the FZ200 is fine. Can you explain how the sensor size helps? You ser...

Have you tried the map on one.network website? It's a bit involved but should give chapter and verse.

Re: Viewing Guides
Both those gates were fine last month and have been for ages. Today I am in a very quiet (except for quarry lorries) Washpool Lane at the 27 end. There is a decent view of four Turkish F-16s and the 135 if you walk along the pavement to a vantage point with a long lens and two steps of your ladder.
