Could well be a Red Arrows Hawk as one was towed over north side on the Friday and didn't leave on Monday with the rest

The two Saudi Hercs were parked next to each other from their arrival until I left yesterday. Can't say today as I wasn't there

Engine runs have been carried out in the last couple of weeks but whether they have done enough to enable flight remains to be seen

Is the Invader still 'in country'? although a war bird of an older era it would look superb on Static (filling a little gap)
Yes, though oddly hasn't flown from Duxford since the day after it went to Fairford in June :lol:
It's having maintenance done at Duxford

Re: Catering

I have to say, in all the years I've been going, since the last Greenham Common show, I've only had really bad food twice. One about 10 years ago, a bacon roll, 5.50 for one piece of bacon and a stale bun. The second was last year, both of the meals I had during the day were disgusting (from differe...

I thought, with it being in the Fairford section it might be a clue as to which base the post is about? 😉

When I switched to mirrorless, the guy in the shop asked what size/speed my current cards were and advised that i should chuck them out and buy larger/faster ones.

Re: Top Guns Inside The RAF

Surely showing that the missions being affected by unserviceability is depicting the truth of every day RAF life, which is the whole point of the programme is it not? You can't have a so called 'in depth' docu-series and only show the good bits, where would be the point in that?
