Thanks Brian!

I'm only looking for 119 and was hoping they'd saved me a trip down but no such luck.

Was anyone able to id which frames flew as Howler 51 and 52 this morning?

Just saw 2x B1 over South Manchester at 11:20, appeared to be heading north-west.
Is this Howler flight, don't know the frequencies and where they relate to!

I was just passing so chanced it and couldn't really keep the wife hanging around for more than the hour
we spent there.
We did see it climbing out from Wrea Green where we grabbed a bite to eat.

Thanks for the info all. Maybe next time.

Hi All,

Paid a quick visit as we were in the area, finding just the 1 Typhoon outside between 1030 and 1130.

ZR512/QA411 Typhoon Qatari marks.

Had hoped for a couple more or open hangar doors but no such luck.

Maybe next time.
Rgds, Dave

Re The 2 F15’s overhead 01-2002 is correct as this flew today. Not so sure on 98-0133 as this is not listed. I believe it would have been 96-0204. Anyone able to confirm it was flying on ADSB as 98-0133. Cheers John.

Thanks for the info John, only just noticed your message

Best, Dave

Hi Steve, Along the road looking across the base golf course. Park at the entrance to the farmer's field (but not blocking access) and the head right from there towards the viewing area. Requires a bit of back and forth to catch the gaps between the trees but think I only missed 1 or 2 of those I co...
