Fast Jets on Castlemartin

Post by Rerun57 » Mon Jan 14, 2013 12:51 pm

Fast Jets operating over CM now. Not seen, but heard from my location 5 miles north. Medium level? Firing notice for next three weeks is unusual in that range is closed to public for mon to Thurs nights each week. Any notams?

Apaches where also operating over the range today.
I presume the next training deployment of tanks are also on range, lots of artillery firing all day.
Unusual to have Fast jets in the overhead, while MBT are firing?, possibley the fast air is operating to the north of the range.
Lynx where also active late last week.
