The fin flash RAF markings on the tail appear to have been corrected now too.

Reds airborne from Waddington, climbing and looking like they’re heading for the Lichfield Corridor.

Anyone know what to expect for this? Closed to non-participating aircraft…

Currently residing in Hangar 3 at Duxford. Hopefully she’s rolled out for the flying finale on Saturday.

There have been some tanker re-positioning movements this evening. KC-46 - 18-46050 (STARK96) KC-135 - 62-3569 (callsign not showing) Both of these are now on the ground at Pease as of 2248 hrs BST. KC-135 - 58-0120 (RCH158) also believed to have landed this afternoon but has returned from Lithuania...

Tank bank is open and has been the last few years

Almost certain it will be more than that.

Other military statics just announced now include the F-15 and F-22.

Are the saudi typhoons parked where 29 sqdn park. And can they be seen from the bbmf parking area?

I believe they were towed South side mate, the first 3 were but unsure of the last few.

Also heard other rumours of them arriving on the 1st, along with the others which makes sense.

As said before most info on Scramble (i know cause i edit it) is indeed based on this topic at Fightercontrol. For now : Two IAF C-17A's have crossed the Arabian Sea earlier today flying from VANY/ Naliya AFS to OMAM/ AlDhafra in the UAE. During the previous days these two have flown domestic to VO...

If the Indians have canned then perhaps the Saudis will come to Waddo instead.
Utter shame if they have, will be two years on the trot.

C-17 also added to the list as of yesterday. Will be good to see that alongside the C-5 in the statics.

I heard somewhere it will be open.

According to the weather man we may be getting another visitor that week

I've booked a day off so it'll probably be me. Not sure why or how the weather man knows though!

lmao

Scramble updated again with the following aircraft numbers.

RSAF Typhoon F2/T3 (x6) & A330 MRTT (x1)
FinAF F/A-18C (x6)
BAC F-16AM (x8)
TuAF F-16C (x3) & KC-135R (x1)
InAF M2000 (x5)

No locations given for the tankers but Brize has been suggested.

Scramble have since added the Indian AF Mirages on to their list. However they are also still showing Swedish Gripens at Waddo and Saudi Typhoons at CGY.

Announcement on social media yesterday was that a C-5 Galaxy will make a debut appearance at Sun n Fun 2023.

This is the first we’ve heard of military statics, hopefully there’s space for some others!!

Add this to the F-35A and B demo teams as well as The Blue Angels with Fat Albert.
